YOU WILL DISCOVER:

Common Red Flags: Learn the most frequent triggers for external queries and how to address them in your initial submission.

The Art of Explanation: How to move beyond raw numbers and provide "financial storytelling" for variances and trust that satisfies auditor curiosity before they feel the need to raise a formal query.

Precision in Process: How to master the "non-negotiables", from calculating the exact 30-day public rights period to ensuring your AGAR approval sequence follows the strict order required.

As we enter the 2025/26 audit season, the spotlight on public money and transparency has never been sharper. Whether you are a first-time Clerk or a seasoned RFO, preparing for the External Audit and potential queries is the difference between a smooth sign-off and a stressful summer. That's why we are delighted to welcome Eleanor Greene, Chief Accountant at Do the Numbers Limited and Secretary to the Internal Audit Forum, to share her insights on the External Audit and help you navigate the query phase without the panic.
