• Overseeing and reviewing the timely and accurate preparation of client deliverables.
• Considering the profitability of the job and working effectively within agreed budgets.
• Management oversight of a portfolio of clients, including client care responsibilities, project management, and WIP/billing management.
• Building strong, trusted relationships with clients and acting as a key point of contact.
• Communicating any problems or contentious issues identified to the senior management team or to the responsible partner, and identifying suggested solutions.
• Taking the lead role on assignments as and when required.
• Training and developing junior members of the team, assisting them in areas they need support with and offering constructive feedback. The role anticipates line management of junior staff.
• Liaising with other departments within RSM, especially the wider Finance Function Support teams, Tax teams and Restructuring teams to ensure that agreed deadlines are met and significant issues are resolved in a timely manner.
