Job Description
You are our future; so we want to give you the best opportunity to partner with us and grow!
At HaysMac, audit is about more than just reviewing financial records and a company's control environment. It has a true societal impact and purpose - aiming to provide solutions to our clients and adopting an added value approach. Given on-the-job coaching, you will soon be working on client site, learning how to interpret data and understand areas of risk. We have clients across the UK where you will have the opportunity to gain exposure to different environments and projects.
From day one, working from our London office, you will be involved in challenging and exciting engagements in one of our five teams: Creative Media and Technology, Property, Hospitality, Financial Services, and Social Purpose. You will be a part of a close-knit graduate cohort, full of self starters, problem-solvers and collaborators, who strive to continually enhance their skills and knowledge.
Over the course of your 4.5-year training contract, you will have access to personal development programmes and high-quality training whilst working towards your internationally recognised ACA professional qualification, alongside mentoring and support from peers and leaders alike. You will be assigned a line manager and a buddy from day one to support your career and development, and help you transition into the world of work.
We host events so you can socialise with your colleagues outside of work, and network with other people at HaysMac. We pride ourselves on making time for one another.
We give you the opportunity to support local communities through our Corporate Social Responsibility ("CSR") programme. We highly value supporting local causes, and we welcome and encourage our staff to participate in charity events and fundraising they are interested in.
As a firm, we are committed to environmental and sustainability initiatives. We demonstrate this commitment through several schemes, such as implementing energy-efficient practices and technologies throughout our operations.
We are looking for candidates who want to kickstart their career in Audit by being exposed to a wide range of UK and international clients. Our firm values are very important to us, and we are seeking candidates who equally value these. You will be motivated by having hands on experience working with clients, as well as collaborating with Seniors, Managers, Directors and Partners across the firm. In return, we offer a supportive environment whereby working together with you, we can propel your personal and professional development for a successful career in Audit at HaysMac.
