What does this team do?

Audit has a really important role in society, helping to protect the public interest. Accurate financial and corporate reporting is essential for businesses. It means that we are able to hold companies to account, maintain financial stability in the country and protect the consumers who rely on those businesses.




Our team provides independent auditor reports, looking at both the truth and fairness of organisations' annual financial statements.




We want everyone who joins us to feel good about this role, and, as a well-known audit business, it's important for us to achieve excellence in the quality of our audit work. The landscape for audit reporting is changing fast, driving demand and evolving our services. More and more, we're using AI and other cognitive technologies to automate and standardise processes to drive accuracy and efficiencies, so focus can be prioritised on delivering a great product.

What skills and academic qualifications do I need?

You'll need to have obtained or be studying towards a minimum 2:1 in any degree discipline and have graduated by September 2026 for the Autumn 2026 intake.

What kind of work will I do?

You'll have the chance to work directly with major organisations, as well as building your skills through our excellent training programme. You'll deliver quality services that make a real difference to our society.




Early on in your career you'll be given responsibility for developing people and managing teams, supported by us every step of the way. You'll get involved with different organisations, helping you to understand how they operate and learning about the economic and industry issues that matter to them. You'll have the opportunity to think creatively and work together to solve problems. Alongside this you'll be learning critical skills to quickly adapt and use technology to help future proof your career.

Our Audit business has two core areas. Let us know your preference:

Large & Complex

Audit which includes listed companies (corporate and financial services) their subsidiaries in the UK and internationally, as well as other public interest companies such as banks, insurers, large private companies, and public sector organisations.

Portfolio Audit

which spans a wide range of sectors including both emerging and large private corporates, real estate funds, pension schemes, financial services brokers and investment managers. Portfolio business offers the opportunity to work with privately-owned, dynamic, entrepreneurial and high growth businesses.


The work we do is wide-ranging, and no two days are ever the same. Working alongside some of the most talented professionals in this specialism, you'll learn to understand corporate language, and assess business processes, systems, controls and reports. This enables organisations across every sector to be transparent about what they do, build stronger systems of quality control, increase their capability to manage risk and, most crucially, increase public confidence.

Where will I work?

At Deloitte we recognise how important face-to-face interaction is for your development in a new role. We also understand that our people need flexibility, which is why we operate a hybrid system, with a combination of office and home working. If you're in a client-facing role, you might be expected to attend client sites on certain days, while your meetings will be a mix of online and in-person events. Please note your final assessment and induction will also be in-person, to give you the opportunity to network and build relationships.

All our workspaces are accessible, however, if you require further flexibility due to a health condition or caring responsibilities, please discuss this with our team.

What's in it for me?

You will be joining a world-class training scheme at Deloitte, in a full-time permanent role that gives you a market-leading salary, benefits and endless opportunities. In addition, you will complete a professional qualification that will contribute to developing your career. All of which is driven by our shared sense of purpose:

We challenge and we rise to the challenge:

We want our people to achieve their potential and are committed to making that happen. We offer you an outstanding training scheme, the opportunity to obtain an internationally renowned professional qualification and ongoing investment in your development.




We include everyone: We are a diverse group of people of the highest calibre and our inclusive culture means everyone's voice is heard. You'll learn from them every day, work in a friendly and supportive team environment, make friends for life, and develop a broad professional network that will serve you well, no matter where your career takes you.


We do the right thing: We believe our people are at their best when they connect their work to a greater cause. At Deloitte, you'll find a place where you can be your true self, thrive professionally and personally, and make a shared impact that reaches further and means more.

How will I develop

Soft skills

To support you, we invest heavily in both your technical skills and soft skills (e.g. communication skills, ability to challenge, decision-making, resilience, project management and leadership skills). This includes building the skills and knowledge required to help you use developing technology such as AI to maximise your potential. These will help you to become a successful business professional and allow you to navigate different situations that you'll encounter during your career.

Qualifications

As part of your Graduate opportunity, you'll be studying towards either the Associate Chartered Accountant (ACA) or Chartered Accountant (CA) qualification with either the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW) or the Institute of Chartered Accountants Scotland (ICAS), depending on which country you're located within.




Both qualifications are globally recognised and are designed to expand your knowledge of a wide range of technical topic areas. They'll help you confidently work on projects and initiatives, applying concepts learnt to your daily work, allowing you to develop professionally as you go.




Whilst professional exams can be challenging, and will require a commitment from you, we in turn commit to providing you with the right support network to help you succeed. You'll be given funded top-quality tuition, with a mix of classroom and self-managed learning sessions, a dedicated early careers coach, a People Leader and access to support from our professional education team.




Our internal support network will guide you through your qualification, provide pastoral support and sign off your training files. Your exam manager will have specific responsibilities such as managing course and exam enrolments for you.




We will cover the cost of all mandated courses, permitted exam attempts and membership fees required for your professional qualification. We will also provide a specified amount of paid study leave to enable you to prepare for the exams required.
