My role at BDO is an internal auditor, where I perform weekly reviews for clients, looking at their processes in different areas within the business and ensuring these are being adhered to across the business as a whole. Providing recommendations where there are gaps in the processes.
Yes, my communication skills have developed a huge amount since working at BDO, aswella s my analytical skills through completing the ACA qualification
I enjoy the work, however sometimes came be a little mundane and repetative
As a whole the organisation of the programme is good, however the ICAEW need to provide clearer guidance on completing the online training file
A lot, and whenever requested for additional support, they have always been able to provide it.
A little, but not enough
I feel the qualification is more focussed around external audit, however there is still a lot of overlap between internal audit, advisory work and the qualification
Yes, however not currently due to covid restrictions
Yes
It is a very supportive company that works to support its employees and all the individuals that I have met during my time of working for BDO have been kind and approachable.
