ACA Graduate Trainee (Audit) at Blick Rothenberg Limited

Where: England - Greater London

Deadline: July 11, 2018

Type: Graduate

About the Company:

Main business: Finance (incl. accountancy, insurance, pensions and fundraising)

Blick Rothenberg is a market leading accounting, tax and advisory practice.

Our standards are extremely high and our atmosphere is lively, friendly and stimulating. Many of our clients are part of substantial groups with strong international connections. Others are SMEs (Small and Medium sized Enterprises), high net worth individuals, professional firms and charities. As we do not split the varying facets of our work into separate compartments, we are able to offer our trainees variety, stimulation, challenge and early responsibility. We are also committed to the development of our trainees.

About the Role:

We run a series of in-house practical training courses. In the first few weeks, trainees receive a basic grounding in audit and accountancy.

In addition to technical training, our courses cover personal development and managerial skills such as communication, aseertiveness, teamwork, critical thinking and negotiation.

By the time you are in your final year with us, you should be working closely with some of our largest clients and supervising junior trainees. You will have practical experience, excellent personal and professional skills and you will be familiar with the latest developments in the chartered accountancy profession. You will have a solid all-round working knowledge of the profession and will be in a position to begin to formulate your ideas for the future.

We are small enough that no one need ever feel that they are simply a cog in a machine, but we are large enough to offer a challenging and satisfying variety of work. Some of our partners either trained with us or joined us shortly after qualifying, and there is always scope for good trainees to build a fulfilling and successful career within the firm.

Requirements:

We look for students who want to work in a medium-sized firm – we are not a cut-down version of the Big 4 but exist very much on our own terms and in our own right. We are looking for ambition, analytical ability and enterprise in potential trainees. Good communication skills, both written and oral are also a must, as are the personal skills necessary to work as a member of a team and to maintain good relations with clients.

We naturally assume that candidates who wish to enter the profession will be able to demonstrate a high level of numeracy and the intellectual calibre necessary to pass demanding professional examinations. That means you will need to have obtained grade B in GCSE Maths and English Language, at least 300 UCAS Tariff points from your top three A-level grades (excluding General Studies) if completed before 2017 or 120 UCAS points after 2017, or equivalent, and to have or be heading towards a 2:1 degree or better.
