Applications for our Graduate Trainee and School Leaver Trainee Programmes are now OPEN!
Every year, we welcome A level students or people who wish to embark on an apprenticeship. You’ll be enrolled on a Level 3 and 4 apprenticeship which will develop a wide range of business and personal skills, work-based learning and professional qualifications. We offer AAT (Association of Accounting Technicians) and ATT (Association of Tax Technicians) Level 3 and 4 apprenticeships. We also offer an accelerated programme for exceptionally talented school leavers to become fully qualified within three years through our ICAEW CFAB (Certificate in Finance Accounting and Business) pathway.
Your initial period of study and work experience will give you a good knowledge of various aspects of accountancy including auditing, accounts preparation, bookkeeping, personal and corporate tax and business development. You'll be able to earn while you learn with hands-on experience of the business. In addition, we'll give you paid time off for study and flexible working, with the opportunity to progress further in the business once you've qualified, and for onward study to become a fully qualified Chartered Accountant (ACA).
We’re looking for talented people who want to be a part of something bigger who share our vision and values. You must be a great relationship builder who can inspire people around you, who is confidential and approachable with strong communication skills and excellent numerical skills.
We have a flexible approach to academic entry requirements, depending on which area of the business you are interested in. We’ll consider your academic achievements, but your strengths, motivations and ability to demonstrate our values are more important. We’re looking for people with a broad range of interests and experiences.
Every year we open our applications in September. Our selection process includes aptitude tests and invitation to attend an assessment centre where you’ll spend the day meeting people from the business, interviewing and undertaking a different range of activities. You are fully briefed and supported by our Talent Team to keep the process informative and not at all scary!
