Job Description

Kickstart your accountancy career with

Corrigan

, a growing independent firm based in the heart of Bristol. We work with some of the most exciting businesses and entrepreneurs, helping them thrive with our range of accountancy services. If you're energetic, eager to learn, and ready to make an impact, we want you to be part of our team!

Why Corrigan?



We're not your typical accountancy firm. We are based in a fantastic modern office space in central Bristol and our culture is all about flexibility, collaboration, and delivering great results for our clients. Our team is the key to our success, and we're excited to offer amazing opportunities for graduates to join us in our Audit, Accounting, and Tax teams.

Accounting & Financial Reporting

: Work on preparing year-end financial statements for a diverse range of clients, using cutting-edge software (don't worry, we'll train you!)

Audit & Assurance

: Get hands-on with audits and assurance work, often at client sites, where you'll learn the ins and outs of different industries.

Who We're Looking For



We're after ambitious, self-motivated grads who are excited to learn and grow. While our team will support you every step of the way, you'll also need to bring curiosity, drive, and a positive attitude.

What You'll Need

112 UCAS points 2:1 degree (any discipline) or AAT/ATT qualification Solid IT skills, especially in Excel Great communication, organisational, and teamwork skills The ability to adapt and prioritise when things get busy

How to Apply



Here's how the process works:

Submit your application

: Send your CV via Indeed.

Online test

: If you're shortlisted, we'll send you a 20-minute test to assess your numerical and verbal reasoning. No prep needed--we'll provide all the instructions!

1st stage interview

: If you pass the test, you'll have an online interview with one of our accountants. We'll chat about your application, why you're excited about the role, and give you a chance to ask us any questions.

Final interview

: If all goes well, you'll be invited to our Bristol office to meet with two Corrigan managers or partners. Got scheduling conflicts? Let us know early, and we'll do our best to work around your commitments. We aim to get back to candidates within a week of the final interview.
We start our apprenticeship programme in September, but we'd love for you to start about a month earlier to get settled before diving into your studies. Unfortunately, we're not able to sponsor visas for this role, so you'll need to have permanent right to work in the UK.

If you don't hear back from us within a month, we won't be moving forward with your application--but we're grateful for your interest!
