Tax Associate Review

Get involved in client fact gathering workshops and following this we carry out economic analysis to support the intercompany transactions of Group companies.

I have developed my minute taking skills, my communications skills and my understanding of technical concepts in accounting and tax.

I thoroughly enjoy the job itself and the team which I am apart of, however the apprentership programme itself could be better developed.

In terms of on the job learning the programme is relatively new and informal, sessions are often planned and then rescheduled. But we do receive lots of ad hoc support.

A relatively okay amount, however this can be somewhat sporadic.

Not as much as I would like, more clarity on what is required of us would be appreciated.

Not at all to be honest, as much of what is included in the qualification is not strictly relevant to my day to day role.

There are lots of sports activities, and some social and networking activities. However the amount of these is reducing and are more sporadic than they used to be.

Yes

The people you can work with and learn from.

Try to contact someone who works for the firm ahead of applying and try to gain as much knowledge from them as possible.
