Description

As a Trainee on our First Step programme (suitable for recent school/college leavers), you will have the opportunity to join our Business, Corporate, or Tax department, but don't worry if you're not sure which one is the best fit for you just yet. Throughout the selection process, we will provide you with insights into each department, taking your preferences into account before making an offer to successful candidates. One thing's for sure though – you'll experience a wide range of exciting work and have plenty of access to partners and senior management who will guide you every step of the way.

Business: You will work on preparing sets of accounts and calculating basic tax returns using financial information provided by our clients.

Corporate: You will be involved in carrying out substantive audit testing on financial accounts prepared by our clients, ensuring an independent review of their accuracy.

Tax: You will undertake corporate and personal tax compliance work on behalf of our clients and assist with any HMRC queries that arise.

Outsourcing: You will work with innovative accounting systems to maintain the financial records for businesses that have chosen to outsource some/all of their finance function.

What will I learn?

During your training contract you will study for an accountancy or tax qualification (CFAB / AAT / ATT and/or ACA), which typically takes five years to complete from start to finish. We provide comprehensive study support, including dedicated time off for college and access to a buddy who can offer valuable insights based on their previous experience.

We believe in building a solid foundation for your career, so that's why we provide ongoing training to develop your soft skills. You'll gain hands-on client experience from the start, including direct contact with clients, so in your first year we'll equip you with essential skills like making a positive first impression, mastering effective time management techniques, and enhancing your communication skills.
