Employer:       
 
KPMG in the UK is part of a global network of member firms that offers Audit, Consulting, Deal Advisory, Tax & Law and Technology services. Through the talent of over 15,000 people, we turn insights into opportunities, making a positive difference for our clients and the communities we serve.
 
Environment:
 
The largest of our UK practices, Audit is about examining organisations and ensuring their published annual accounts are a 'true and fair' reflection of their financial performance. In Audit, we undertake work that affects investment decisions, inspires confidence in public sector expenditure and supports economic growth. Some of the world’s biggest companies rely on us to provide independent insight, challenge and high-quality audit expertise. Today, more than ever in disruptive times, Audit is a function needed by society and in the future, to support growth.
 
It’s challenging, yet rewarding work. There's also a real sense of community across our Audit team - we're collaborative and value the different perspectives and ideas that contribute to our shared goal of delivering quality work. You’ll join an environment where you can come as you are, and supported to be at your best.
 
What might a day in this role look like?
 
As an Audit apprentice, you’ll focus on delivering high-quality audits using an investigative approach. You’ll learn to use new technologies and tools such as artificial intelligence and predictive analytics to analyse data and produce quality audit outcomes - all whilst studying towards a valuable professional qualification. You'll gain a breadth of experience as well as become equipped with valuable technical skills, broad commercial understanding and in-depth knowledge of different industry sectors - from the biggest multinationals through to innovative start-ups.
 
You'll have the resources and support you need to thrive with us and reach your full potential, learning to handle each audit engagement with confidence. You'll work as part of a team and may spend time on site at the companies you're auditing, in virtual or hybrid forms of audit delivery. From the start, you'll be working on complex projects alongside some of the brightest minds in business and benefit from learning every day.
 
This is a 5 year programme starting in Autumn 2023.
 
What will I learn?
 
The training and development of our people is critical to the future success of our business. We want all of our apprentices to embrace a growth mindset of learning every day, which is why we have created a rich curriculum and learning community to help trainees build their skills and fulfil their potential. This ranges from an immersive 5-day induction experience, formal training courses, leadership knowledge bites, learning journals, online courses and networking events - all aligned to our life-long learning strategy and part of our overall student package.
 
In addition, as part of the Audit Apprenticeship, you will complete the AAT Level 3 and 4 plus the Level 7 ACA Professional Qualification.
 
What qualifications/skills are required?
 
At KPMG, everyone brings a unique perspective, and we want to ensure that you have the best opportunity to demonstrate your potential.
