Overview

University isn't the only route to a successful career in Accountancy. If you are interested in combining your passions with a career in Accountancy, earning while you learn and avoiding university debt, then applying for one of our high-end Trainee Accountant / Tax Adviser apprenticeships might be the perfect next step for you. You will be supported over a 3 year period where you will gain a sought after, globally recognised accounting or tax qualification and establish a solid foundation for a successful career. You will be sitting within either our Business Services or Tax Compliance Teams. Whether you're preparing accounts, creating and submitting VAT returns, bookkeeping or focusing on Tax Compliance, this is a fantastic opportunity to kick-start a promising career and gain invaluable experience from industry experts. Successful completion of the full AAT or ATT qualification puts you in prime position to apply for the next stage of studies under our graduate programmes. You will be eligible for exemptions from some exams which means you will be on a fast track to become a Chartered Accountant or Chartered Tax Adviser.
