About the role
Are you a fluent Korean speaker looking to combine your accounting expertise with a client-facing, commercially focused role? Are you ready to take ownership of client relationships, help grow a portfolio and build a long-term career with a clear pathway to Partner?
Our client, a high-growth accountancy practice, is looking for an ambitious professional to join its rapidly expanding Korea Desk. The team manages a substantial and diverse portfolio, including banks and some of Korea’s largest international corporate groups, offering excellent exposure to complex clients and the opportunity to play a key role in the team’s continued growth.
Working closely with the Partner, you’ll take responsibility for developing client relationships, acting as a key point of contact and coordinating work across the audit, tax and accounts teams to ensure clients receive a seamless service. You’ll also have the opportunity to identify new business opportunities, strengthen existing relationships and contribute directly to the growth of the portfolio.
This is more than a traditional accountancy practice role. While audit review experience would be beneficial, the priority is someone with strong practice experience, excellent client-facing skills and a commercial mindset. You’ll be someone who enjoys building relationships, spotting opportunities and taking ownership, rather than focusing solely on technical delivery.
The real attraction is the career trajectory. The Partner is looking for someone with ambition, initiative and a genuine desire to help grow the Korea Desk, with the longer-term goal of progressing to Partner. For the right person, this is an opportunity to make a real impact on the business while shaping their own career progression.
Who are we looking for?
- Fluent Korean language skills.
- A strong background in accountancy practice.
- ACA/ ACCA/ CTA / KICPA/ equivalent qualified
- Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
- A commercial, proactive mindset with the confidence to identify opportunities and support business development.
- Ambition to take on greater responsibility and progress towards a future leadership role.
If you’re looking for a role where you can combine your accounting background and Korean language skills with client relationship management, business development and a genuine opportunity to make Partner, this could be the ideal next step in your career.
