Audit - Full Time Graduate

Audit matters to everyone. When a company shares its financial results, people need to know those numbers are accurate. Audit independently checks company financial reports so the public, investors and businesses can trust them. The landscape for audit reporting is changing fast, with increasing use of AI and other technologies to automate processes and improve accuracy. We need to audit AI financial systems and processes too, meaning the scope of the work is always growing.

What You'll Do

As companies share financial and business results, you will check the information is accurate. Using proven testing methods, you will look closely at how these figures are produced. You will learn to spot inaccuracies and ask why.

Our Audit practice has two core groups:

• Large & Complex Audit: Includes listed companies (corporate and financial services) and 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.
