By joining a student programme within Tax Technology & Engineering, you will work with and learn from some of the most talented and experienced professionals in the industry.
You’ll have the opportunity to work with a range of clients, from FTSE 100 organisations to start-ups and private individuals.
You’ll help them solve some of the most complex issues their business is ever likely to face. Many of our established clients are high profile, household names. You will play a key role in a multi-disciplinary collaborative team and will learn about the UK's latest tech developments.
Depending on the area you join, you may be using your technical background to understand and support a client’s development activities or form the basis for their research and development, patent box claims and grant applications. Alternatively, by using cloud services and cutting-edge technology (then applying it to the tax technology domain) you will support the build of software platforms to provide better business insight and efficiencies.
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 workspaces are accessible, however, if you require further flexibility due to a health condition or caring responsibilities, please discuss this with our team.
How will I develop?
We want our people to have worldclass practical experience coupled with the technical rigour and knowledge that comes from the right professional qualification.
We think the best experience is being immersed in client work, working alongside other team members, and learning the practical skills that will set you up for a successful career. That will be the initial focus whether you are a Graduate, an Industrial Placement, or a BrightStart, supported by internal training and support from coaches, people leaders, and your team.
We think this is vital and will set you up for success when we further support your development with a professional qualification, recognising that different roles across our business align to different pathways. These may include options such as joint or accelerated programmes leading to qualifications like Association of Taxation Technicians (ATT), Associate Chartered Accountant (ACA), Institute of Chartered Accountants of Scotland (ICAS) or Chartered Tax Adviser (CTA), as well as other more specialist routes focused on tax or technical expertise.
