    Closing soon

    Our Finance team offers a huge variety of roles and specialism across our business. You’ll have the opportunity to work in a number of teams while gaining a broad knowledge of our business. No two days are the same. One day you could be making sure that our financial reporting is accurate, and another partnering with colleagues to deliver Tesco’s ambitions. It’s an exciting opportunity and definitely more than just numbers! We’re counting on you to support our customers’ needs and to work with trusted partners to help serve our customers a little better every day.

    Alongside your role in the office, you’ll be studying one day a week with tutors from your apprenticeship learning provider - Kaplan. Throughout your 24-month programme, you’ll be supported by your line manager as you work towards a Level 4 Apprenticeship in Professional Accounting, as part of Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA) studies. 

    Whether you’re building necessary technical skills, or gaining essential communication, analysis and insight capabilities, this programme will ensure the best possible start to your finance career and your journey to become a qualified accountant!  Also a successful apprenticeship with us could give you the opportunity to join our three-year Finance graduate programme and complete the CIMA Professional Qualification.

    Who we are looking for

    We’re looking for great teammates who are keen to work in a fast-paced environment. You’ll need to be able to use the skills you’ll learn in your CIMA studies to solve business challenges.

    About Tesco

    Our vision at Tesco is to become every customer's favourite way to shop, whether they are at home or out on the move. Our core purpose is ‘Serving our customers, communities and planet a little better every day’. Serving means more than a transactional relationship with our customers. It means acting as a responsible and sustainable business for all stakeholders, for the communities we are part of and for the planet.

    We are proud to have an inclusive culture at Tesco where everyone truly feels able to be themselves. At Tesco, we not only celebrate diversity, but recognise the value and opportunity it brings. We're committed to creating a workplace where differences are valued, and make sure that all colleagues are given the same opportunities. We're a big business with diverse working patterns and many business areas which means that we can find something that works for you. Everyone is welcome at Tesco.

    We have recently announced that we will be moving towards a more blended working week – combining office and remote working. Our offices will continue to be where we connect, collaborate and innovate. Please talk to us to about how this can work for you.

    NOTE: Should you be successful in your application, your offer will be subject to and conditional upon you providing your bank account details, and evidence of right to work for the duration of the programme on your agreed start date.
