Job description
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 to feel good about their role, and, as a high-profile audit firm, it’s important for us to achieve a consistent and widely recognised standard of excellence in the quality of our audit work.
The landscape for audit reporting is changing fast and our work continues to evolve. More and more, we’re using intelligent machines to automate and standardise processes, so focus can go on delivering a quality product for businesses. Enabling you to enjoy real responsibility early in your career.
Our offices in Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man offer something unique; the opportunity to work for a Big Four firm whilst living in a beautiful island setting. Each island has a distinctive atmosphere with vibrant communities and a wide variety of outdoor pursuits on offer. Working in the islands presents the career opportunities found in large cities but with the benefit of short commutes and being able to take full advantage of the temperate climate as well as proximity to the sea, beautiful landscapes and nature.
Our offices may be smaller than some (c.200 colleagues across the three islands) but this doesn’t mean our clients are. The Channel Islands & Isle of Man are home to diverse and thriving financial markets giving you the opportunity to work with high profile, prestigious clients.
We work with organisations of all sizes; from rapidly growing local companies to international private equity and real estate businesses with a global reach. Our broad range of clients means that no day in our Islands’ Audit practice is ever the same.
Our close-knit office community encourages plenty of hands-on experience and the chance to work closely with senior colleagues who invest in your development and career progression from day one.
What skills and academic qualifications do I need?
You’ll need to have obtained or be studying towards at least 104 UCAS points (260 UCAS points pre-2017) for your A levels (or equivalent) to be eligible for this programme.
What kind of work will I do?
People from a wide range of backgrounds can thrive on our inclusive BrightStart Apprenticeship programme. It’s a rewarding leap into the world of professional services that allows you to gain real-world experience while being paid to learn and progress.
By joining us 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.
- Large & Complex Audit which includes listed companies (corporate and financial services), their subsidiaries in the UK and internationally, as well as other public interest entities such as banks, insurers, large private companies and public sector organisations.
- Portfolio Audit which spans a wide range of sectors including 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.
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 work spaces are accessible, however, if you require further flexibility due to a health condition or caring responsibilities, please discuss this with our team. You can find further information on our
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 BrightStart opportunity, you’ll be studying towards either the ACA or ACCA qualification depending on which island 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 perform work on your client projects and initiatives, and develop professionally throughout your training agreement.
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 apprenticeship and 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, and your People Leader will oversee apprenticeship responsibilities such as attending your quarterly review meetings with 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
