PwC Full time graduate opportunities within Government & Public Services - Milton Keynes – Autumn 2012

Be part of something special. Join the organisation that’s been voted number one in The Times Top 100 Graduate Employers survey for the last eight years. You’ll enjoy exceptional business exposure, build wide-ranging skills and life-long relationships, and gain valuable professional qualifications.

 

Work with clients ranging from hospitals to universities, charities to local councils, central government to housing associations. Come up with the innovative ideas and practical solutions that help them rise to the challenge of the current economy. And make a real difference to the services we all rely on. You’ll use your analytical skills to get maximum value out of taxpayers’ money. We believe it makes for a terrifically rewarding career. And as our services range from external and internal audit to compliance, and from risk management to value-for-money reviews, our work is as varied as the clients themselves. We also publish newsletters and articles, and give tailored advice and training to clients to keep them up to speed with the latest developments in accounting and corporate governance

 

There’s no doubt the public sector faces tough times. Budgets are being slashed yet demand for services is higher than ever. What’s more, changing demographics mean this demand will only increase. So it’s not surprising that the work of our Government and Public Services team is particularly challenging. But equally, it’s extremely rewarding.

 

With rolling countryside on the doorstep and a city centre packed with great shops, bars and the most successful theatre outside London, Milton Keynes offers the best of both worlds. And so will the diversity of our client list, giving you a wide range of experience without the hectic pace of life in a larger city.

 

Our people make us stand out as a firm. So we choose the best and invest heavily in them. You’ll benefit from the encouragement, opportunity and support which includes: 

 

Our graduate training programme helps you gain breadth as well as depth of knowledge and build a portfolio of valuable, transferable skills.

Movement throughout the firm – you’ll work in different teams and offices, experience different clients and projects; try out new roles and even sample other business areas. It will all help you develop along a path that fits your goals as well as the ever-changing needs of our business.

Support to gain a professional qualification – study towards becoming a Chartered Accountant* with the Institute of Chartered Accountants, England and Wales (ICAEW) or the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Scotland (ICAS). 

 

In short, this is your chance to enjoy a huge variety of experiences, develop an enormous breadth of skills and build relationships that will stay with you throughout your life. Like all PwC people, you can also look forward to a competitive salary and a personally tailored benefits package.

 

Who we look for

A 2:1 or above in any degree discipline

A UCAS tariff of at least 300 (or equivalent)

 

Equally important will be your ability to build relationships, to put yourself in others’ shoes and make a positive impact on our clients and us, while shaping your own future.

 

 

But maybe you don’t have the grades we’re after because you’ve invested time in extra-curricular activities that show you’re exceptional. If so, you could still join us. ‘Inspired Talent’ is our entry route that recognises exam results aren’t the only way to prove you have potential.
