Belfast | Clear Route to Partner | All-Ireland & US Portfolio

Hayward Hawk is delighted to be partnering with a scaling, growth-focused accountancy firm in Belfast to appoint an Audit Director.

The firm has built an enviable All-Ireland client portfolio spanning owner-managed businesses, mid-market groups and international subsidiaries, complemented by a strong and growing US referral network. With sustained organic growth and clear succession planning in place, this appointment forms a key part of the firm’s medium-term Partner strategy.

This is a genuine, structured route to equity - not a holding role.

The Role
  • Lead a substantial and high-quality audit portfolio across multiple sectors
  • Act as primary relationship lead for key clients across Ireland and US-linked engagements
  • Oversee complex and cross-border audit assignments
  • Drive audit quality, compliance and technical standards
  • Mentor and develop senior managers and audit teams
  • Contribute to strategic growth and business development initiatives

You will work closely with a commercially astute, young, dynamic, forward-thinking Partner group invested in long-term succession and leadership development.

The Person
  • Significant audit experience gained within a Top 10 accountancy practice
  • Currently operating at Senior Manager or Director level
  • Experienced in managing sizeable and complex audit portfolios
  • Commercially aware with strong client relationship capability
  • Ambitious and motivated by a clearly defined pathway to Partner
The Opportunity
  • Clearly structured progression framework to Partner
  • Exposure to an All-Ireland and US connected client base
  • Leadership influence within a modern, scaling firm
  • Long-term equity opportunity within a progressive Partner team

This represents a standout opportunity for a high-performing audit leader seeking meaningful progression, international exposure and a defined seat at the table.
