Career options

If you enjoy helping others then our Leadership Support Centre (LSC) in Cardiff could be right for you. This is an opportunity to join a new and dynamic team who work to support the senior leaders across Deloitte. You’ll be helping these senior leaders to do their jobs as well as possible, by supporting them with administrative tasks. For example, planning their diaries and helping them to organise travel when needed.

The role will be of interest to those who have a positive attitude, willingness to learn and good organisational skills. Resilience, and integrity, and the ability to use your own initiative to resolve problems quickly will be key to success in this role. You’ll be given plenty of support and training along the way, and you’ll be working in a friendly and diverse team.

Our Quality Risk and Security (QRS) team helps to manage risks within the business. For example, before agreeing to work with a company, Deloitte needs to be sure that there are no risks to our firm and our team would help to establish this. We also address conflicts of interest with potential clients, so that we can maintain our independence from them and ensure money laundering isn’t a risk. We have Entry Level Apprenticeships in Cardiff and BrightStart Apprenticeships available in London and Cardiff.

Depending on which team you join within QRS Services, day to day tasks could include conducting research on companies who wish to work with Deloitte, reviewing Deloitte’s regulatory requirements, monitoring how we store our data to ensure we are safe from any security breaches, and speaking to client-facing teams to ensure the relationship with our clients is being managed correctly.

We’re looking for ambitious school leavers who are keen to learn and develop an interesting career that they can make their own. An apprenticeship here enables you to experience lots of different areas of risk and security within the business, so that you can make an informed decision about your future career. This scheme is a rotational programme, with time spent gaining experience and understanding of key areas within our business. These can include: 

  • Financial Crime: You will learn how to risk assess clients and help make key decisions around client take-on and anti-money laundering requirements. 
  • Personal and Firm Independence: You will learn about the regulatory requirements we have as an audit business when it comes to Independence, and work with the team to ensure we, and our people, comply with these. 
  • Deloitte Business and Security (DBS): Working with our DBS teams, you will help protect our business from security threats. You will learn about cybersecurity, data protection, crisis management, physical security, vetting and much more. 
  • Strategy and Operations: Our Strategy and Operations team is headed by our CFO. You will work with this team and learn how they make key decisions around our operations. 
  • Contentious Matters: Our in-house legal team is key to protecting us. You’ll work with our lawyers to understand more about the legal side to risk.  
  • Service Line rotation: You may get the opportunity to work with one of our service lines and get a taste of what it’s like to work with clients directly.   

Our audit teams play an important role in checking company accounts, which helps to protect the public interest. We’ve created a Centre of Excellence in Newcastle (SACC) to support our internal audit teams throughout the UK. The team provides remote support to all our Deloitte colleagues who engage directly with businesses, to help them in completing administrative tasks associated with the audit of accounts.

It involves working closely with your colleagues and will help you to develop an understanding of company accounts and why they’re so important to get right. Roles are available for entry level apprentices who are leaving school. You will be completing your Association of Accounting Technicians (AAT) Level 4 Apprenticeship whilst working in our team and become a subject matter expert in company accounts. As part of this, you will attend college to study AAT Level 4 with your peers. As well as formal and informal on-the-job training, you’ll have a supportive team around you to guide you through your career at Deloitte.

Finance Services provides finance support services to Deloitte’s client facing teams. We work across all the different business areas across the firm helping with a wide range of tasks. We use our team’s communication and organisational skills to deliver a fantastic customer experience for our people.

In Finance Services, we have an unrivalled culture - our people tell us it is a great place to work. We have a big focus on personal development, helping to support you to reach your personal goals through People Leader check ins, coaching, dedicated career sessions or mentorship. 

APPLICATION OPENING AND CLOSING DATES

We have lots of roles available within different business areas at Deloitte, with different opening and closing dates for applications, depending on the programmes and locations. However, we do close applications early when we get a very high volume of submissions, so we recommend applying as early as possible.

Entry Level Apprenticeship

"I started doing A-Levels, but I wanted more flexibility. I decided Deloitte would be a great fit for me because of the wide variety of learning opportunities on offer." 

Josie, Enabling Functions

How did you get your job at Deloitte?

I grew up in Newport in South Wales. Although I loved school and always did well, I was quite indecisive about what I wanted from the future. I started doing A-Levels, but I wanted more flexibility. I Googled apprenticeships and discovered that Deloitte offered entry level options for people who’ve taken their GCSEs. At the time I’d never heard of the firm, but after doing some research I decided it would be a great fit for me because of the wide variety of learning on offer. In 2019 I joined as an assistant in Engagement Support Services, a team which helps lots of different areas of the business with their administrative tasks.

What charity projects are you involved with?

Outside of my main role, I’m involved in Deloitte’s Five Million Futures project, which supports people into employment and education. I recently helped to organise DeloitteFest, which is a fundraising event in Cardiff with a live band and food vendors. The night was a huge success and we raised a great amount of funds for National Youth Advocacy Service (NYAS), a Deloitte partner charity that supports vulnerable children and young adults.
