Training & Profiles

This is a bespoke rotational scheme, which will give you exposure to every element of local government finance, whilst attached to a specific local authority. The scheme has been carefully designed to maximise your potential with work varying from key corporate processes to advising senior management and challenging project initiatives. Your work will include but not be limited to, budget preparation and monitoring, payroll, pensions, treasury, systems, internal audit and accounting.

You will also be sponsored to study for the unique and prestigious Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy (CIPFA) Professional Qualification.

This is more than just a way to achieve a great qualification and be paid to do it though. Being chosen for the scheme will allow you to influence key local authority decisions that matter to communities, enhancing people’s lives.

You will:

• Have, or expect to achieve, a minimum of a 2:2 (from any degree background)
• Have GCSEs (or equivalent) in Maths and English (Grade C or above)
• Demonstrate strong numeric, written, oral and presentation skills
• Be computer literate
• Practice first-class time management skills

Your formal qualifications aren’t the most important requirement though - your drive to succeed and desire to make a difference is. We want people who aren’t afraid of taking on a challenge, we want people who know they can make communities better and we want people who care about people and the work they are doing.

We can offer:

• Excellent packages including competitive salaries, final salary pension schemes and generous holidays
• Flexible working environment, including a great work/life balance ethic.
• Flexible start dates between May and August 2012 for successful applicants
