The largest of our UK practices, Audit provides insight, challenge and expertise to some of the world’s biggest companies. We make a meaningful difference to those businesses and the wider community, by examining organisations and ensuring that their published accounts provide a true and fair reflection of their financial position.

Join us on this programme and, as a graduate trainee, you’ll work on diverse and complex audit engagements, learning about all the components that make a successful business. You’ll have the opportunity to see the auditing process from a range of different perspectives, giving you a rounded view of the discipline and benefiting from learning that will last a lifetime. In fact, you’re laying the groundwork for a secure and long-lasting career.

Applying a questioning mind and critically assessing information that organisations provide, you’ll develop your skills to deliver independent insight, challenge and high-quality audit expertise. You’ll also play a big part in our continuous improvement of audit quality.

On the Accounting Advisory and Assurance programme you will develop your skills and experience by providing businesses with a broad range of accounting advice. Depending on the team you join you could be supporting major business transactions and transformations or delivering assurance services on financial and non-financial information, processes and controls such as information relating to Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) reporting.

If you join our Accounting Advisory team, you’ll help businesses with a variety of complex accounting challenges, such as preparation of financial statements, mergers and acquisitions, implementing new accounting standards or regulatory changes, group restructures and delivery of training.

In ESG Assurance, you’ll help organisations meet the growing demand for clear and transparent disclosure of their ESG commitments to regulators, investors, and the public. Reporting standards are changing rapidly and you’ll play an important role examining a variety of data points such as greenhouse gas emissions, waste, human rights, diversity and many other non-financial metrics. You may also be involved in providing assurance over sector specific regulations such as ATOL, contractual compliance, and grants.
