Overview
You get client books into a state where an external audit runs smoothly and cheaply. Note the scope honestly: Emirae.Pro does not perform the statutory audit itself, that independent examination is done by a licensed auditor. Your job is everything that comes before it, and doing it well is what turns a painful audit into a routine one.
What you will do
- Review client records ahead of audit and identify gaps before the auditor does.
- Prepare trial balances, lead schedules and supporting documentation packs.
- Resolve reconciling items and unexplained balances.
- Assemble working papers that answer an auditor's questions in advance.
- Act as the coordination point between the client and their licensed external auditor.
- Track audit queries through to resolution.
- Feed recurring issues back to the accounting team so they stop repeating.
What we are looking for
- 3+ years in audit, audit support or accounting with audit exposure.
- Understanding of what an external auditor asks for and why.
- Strong reconciliation and documentation skills.
- Ability to work through messy records methodically.
- Clear communication with both clients and auditors.
- Professional English.
Nice to have
- Time spent inside an audit firm.
- Part or fully qualified (ACCA, CA, CPA or similar).
- Knowledge of UAE statutory audit and free zone audit requirements.
- Experience with audit software or structured working-paper systems.

Frequently asked questions
Will I be signing off audits?
No. The statutory audit is an independent examination performed by a licensed auditor. You prepare clients for it and coordinate with that auditor.
Is this a busy-season role?
Audit deadlines create peaks, but the preparation work is spread across the year by design.
Do I need audit firm experience?
It helps a lot, but strong accounting experience with real audit exposure also works.
