Who are we?  

  

We’re a dedicated team of like-minded accountancy professionals. Our clients range from top fashion retailers, leisure & hospitality businesses to renewable energy enterprises and we get involved in issues that affect gaming developers and motorsports engineers. 

  

We are ranked among the UK’s top 13 accountancy firms, combining high levels of technical expertise with the kind of personal service often only found in smaller firms. 

  

In 2020, we won the Best Advisory Services category of the new Business Resilience Awards, organised by Accountancy Age. Previously, we won National Firm of the Year, Tax Team of the Year and Graduate and Non-Graduate programme of the Year at the British Accountancy Awards, we internationally re-branded, and we grew substantially with a few high-profile mergers. It's an exciting time to join the firm! 

  

As part of a multi award winning medium sized firm, you will have the opportunity to work with our wide and eclectic client base across the accounting and financial spectrum. That means really getting to grips with the inner workings of a company and finding ways to help them - whether that’s working on taxing technicalities or devising strategies to help them fulfil their commercial potential. 

  

You'll have client contact from the very start, that's why your ability to build great business relationships is just as important as your ability with numbers. 
  

What will I do?  

  

You'll be part of a team working on audit and accounts preparation assignments with a wide range of clients, so it goes without saying that you need to be someone that can be relied upon to help the team deliver outstanding levels of client care. 

  

Some of your responsibilities may include working closely with your mentor on audit planning memorandum, analytical reviews, drafting client letters, preparing accounts and producing sets of financial statements. 

  

We'll make sure you have the right experience, personal development and training to make your career stimulating and rewarding. We'll carefully balance your practical experience to reinforce your professional training. Combined, these two crucial elements will help you achieve your qualification. 

  

Along with your peers, you will be assigned mentors who will support and guide you as well as dedicated tutors who will ensure your progress and development is on track. 

  

Our AAT and ACA Trainees come from a variety of different academic and cultural backgrounds. 
  

Entry Requirements  

  

We do not require ACA Trainees to have a business or financial background. However, we do ask that all applicants have achieved at least 112 UCAS Points (based on the new 2017 UCAS Tariff), or equivalent, all achieved during the same exam year. This excludes General Studies. We also ask that applicants have either achieved or are working to achieve at least a 2:1 at university.  

  

Alternatively, you may already be AAT qualified and have achieved at least 280 UCAS points (based on the UCAS Tariff prior to the new change) from 3 A-levels - or equivalent, all achieved during the same exam year. This excludes General Studies.
