About the role

Audit matters to everyone. When a company shares its financial results, people need to know those numbers are accurate. We check company financial reports independently, so the public, investors and businesses can trust what they're seeing. The landscape for audit reporting is changing fast, creating demand and evolving the services we provide. We're increasingly using AI and other technologies to automate and standardise processes, as well as improve accuracy. By joining us you'll have the chance to work directly with major organisations, as well as building your skills through our excellent training programme. You'll deliver quality services that make a real difference to our society. Early on in your career you'll be given responsibility for developing people and managing teams, supported by us every step of the way. You'll get involved with different organisations, helping you to understand how they operate and learning about the economic and industry issues that matter to them. You'll have the opportunity to think creatively and work together to solve problems.

You'll need to have obtained or be studying towards at least 104 UCAS points (260 UCAS points pre-2017) for your A levels (or equivalent) to be eligible for this programme. Core skills essential to all Early Careers roles are required.
