Audit Industrial Placement 2027

Programme Details Programme Industrial Placement Career Path Audit & Assurance Location London Start Date September-2027 Programme Description What does this team do? Audit matters to everyone, even if you've never heard the word before. When a company shares its financial results, people need to know those numbers are accurate. That's where audit comes in. We check company financial reports independently, so the public, investors and businesses can trust what they're seeing. It's a job that protects people, and it genuinely makes a difference. The landscape for audit reporting is changing fast, creating demand and evolving the services we provide. We’re increasingly using AI and other technologies to automate and standardise processes, as well as improve accuracy. Businesses are using AI technologies too and it’s changing how they operate. We need to audit their AI financial systems and processes too, which means the scope of the work we do is always growing. We’re shaping the future of audit, and there’s never been a more exciting time to join us! What skills and academic qualifications do I need? This programme is for university students who are doing well academically and want to test their skills in the real world. You’ll be on track to achieve a predicted degree classification of 2:1 or above in any discipline. You must also be in the penultimate year of your course. We have identified 10 core skills that are essential to all of our roles in Early Careers. To learn more about these skills and their detailed descriptions, please visit the 'Discover What We Look For' section in our Candidate Zone. What kind of work will I do? For 12 months you’ll play a key part in our business – training and working alongside our first-year graduates. You’ll do real work from day one, using what you’ve learnt at university to help solve complex problems. You’ll help us push boundaries and learn skills that will set you up for an exciting 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 growth 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 work spaces are accessible, however, if you require further flexibility due to a health condition or caring responsibilities, please discuss this with our team.
