Job description
What is Audit at KPMG?
Audit is KPMG’s largest practice in the UK, which provides insight, challenge, and expertise to some of the world’s biggest companies. We examine organisations and ensure their published financial statements provide a true and fair view of their financial position.
Audit Apprenticeship
Join us on this programme and you’ll get to the heart of the organisations we audit, learning all about the components that make a successful business. Some of the world’s biggest companies rely on us for our audit expertise and you’ll gain varied experience working on these complex audit engagements. Alongside your audit work you’ll study towards a valuable professional accounting qualification setting you up with the investigative skills and technical knowledge for a successful career that could lead to many different opportunities. All whilst earning a competitive salary.
As an apprentice you’ll play an important part in supporting the continuous improvement of audit quality, working with new technologies like AI and predictive analytics to analyse data and produce great work. We’ll give you the training and resources you need to thrive with us and reach your full potential and dedicated study leave to help you achieve your qualifications. You’ll work on challenging projects alongside a supportive team allowing you to grow professionally and handle each new audit engagement with confidence.
Our firm’s hybrid working model balances the flexibility of working from home with the importance of collaborating and learning in our offices, or at the sites of the organisations we audit. We trust our people to be where they need to be, with our colleagues working together in person as often as needed. Travel is likely for audit and because the work is seasonal, you should expect there to be busy times of the year.
Audit is challenging and rewarding. Join us and find a career path full of opportunities for learning and personal development. You’ll have the support of your senior leaders, fellow apprentices and the broader Audit community by your side.
Benefits
We offer an annual salary of £23,000 (UK regions) to £25,000 (London), and a host of great benefits too, including 25 days’ holiday, study leave and a day off on your birthday. What’s more, you can take up to six days of time off to take part in volunteering initiatives.
Seeing the whole picture
As part of the Audit team, you will be building friendships and shared experiences, innovating, and learning together. KPMG is a place where you can be yourself and give your best - whoever you are and whatever your background. We look at more than just your academic results and will also consider your strengths, values and motivations. If you’re collaborative and good with people, that can be just as important as your ability to pick up key technical skills. See the specific programme page on our Careers Portal for entry requirements and our ‘How to Apply’ section for detailed application guidance.
Training
On this programme, you’ll study towards the AAT Levels 3 and 4, plus the Level 7 ACA professional qualification or CA equivalent in Scotland. These qualifications are fully funded by KPMG and are supported by an extensive programme of internal training spanning both personal and professional development.
