Audit Apprenticeship Programme
About the programme
Our purpose is to support the long-term sustainability of businesses, to bring trust and confidence to society and the financial markets.
Technology, including AI is transforming the way that we deliver our audits as it’s embedded in everything that we do. It allows us to focus on using our key skills on analysis, exercising professional judgement and providing powerful insights to EY teams and clients.
What will you be doing?
* Working in teams we analyse data, consider sustainability metrics, and test business controls to determine whether financial statements are accurate.
* Learning from your team as they coach and guide you in your day-to-day tasks.
* Working across a portfolio of clients assigned to you. This will involve a mixture of hybrid working – travelling to client offices, working in the EY office and occasionally from home. It will vary by client and will depend on the requirement of the team.
* Studying towards a Professional Qualification, which requires attending in-person courses, self-study and sitting exams.
* Attending EY learning courses to continually learn new skills.
* Regularly meeting your support network including your Career Counsellor, and Apprenticeship Coach to track your performance and help you progress your career.
* Participating in a range of other activities that help you build your network and support the performance of our business.

This allows us to give you the maximum credit for your achievements, assessing whether you have overachieved in light of your personal circumstances.
