Accountancy Practice Audit Salary and Benefits Report 2025
I have just published the new Accountancy Practice Audit Salary and Benefits Report for 2025, which brings together the latest salary bands and market insight from across the North West, Yorkshire and the North East. It is now available to download directly from this page.
This year’s report sets out the lower, typical and upper salary ranges for all the main audit roles across Big Four, Top Twenty, the larger regional firms and the smaller independents. It is designed to be a clear and practical reference point for anyone involved in hiring, planning, or simply keeping an eye on the current audit market.
The report covers:
• Audit Assistant
• Audit Senior
• Assistant Manager
• Manager
• Senior Manager
• Director
• Partner
Alongside the salary tables, there is also a summary of the benefits that firms commonly offer across practice, along with some commentary on market trends, movement patterns and what to expect over the next year.
You can download the full report using the link below.
If there is anything in the report that you want to discuss, or if you would like to sense check where you sit in the market, feel free to get in touch. Whether you are exploring options now or thinking ahead to 2026, an off the record chat can be a useful way to understand what might be possible.
And if there are areas you would like to see expanded in future updates, I would welcome your feedback. These guides evolve each year based on the conversations I have with people across practice, and the input is always appreciated.
