Job Description

Head Start School and college leaver programme

A position on our Head Start School and college leaver programme is one of the best ways of jumping into a career with PwC early. You'll learn and develop the specialist skills our clients look for and value most and study towards a professional qualification, with support from us all the way.

Tax

Your knowledge will help high-profile businesses, entrepreneurs and family businesses understand complex rules and make informed decisions with significant impacts. You'll also help governments ensure the efficient operation of tax systems, and use your insight to solve long-term problems. You'll be part of a business that's committed to proactively engaging with the tax policy debate and focused on leading views and new ideas.

Compliance Services

Our tax practice has transformed our Tax Compliance proposition and delivery model to combine our three service streams; Corporate, Personal and Global Mobility compliance. Working within the Compliance Services (CS) team you’ll have the opportunity to work with our high profile clients, whether on corporate, individual or expatriate tax returns.

What you will do

· 
Work with our clients, taxpayers and overseas PwC offices to gather information required for tax calculations and manipulate the data as needed

· 
Prepare tax calculations ensuring all income is reported and all applicable tax reliefs / deductions are claimed; researching any complex points; liaising with the client / taxpayer to request additional information / clarify areas of uncertainty; and make any necessary amendments based on instruction from the reviewer, client portfolio leader, client or taxpayer

· 
Flag opportunities for clients to optimise tax savings, increase compliance with regulations, and improve data reporting

What you will gain

As part of the programme you will undertake a structured, self-directed learning programme gaining knowledge of the industry and market, technical skills, self-development, self- awareness, leadership skills, and commercial awareness.

You will enjoy plenty of practical, on-the-job training while studying for the ICAEW Certificate in Finance, Accounting & Business (CFAB) professional qualification. The great thing is, by the time you complete your exams, you will have lots of valuable experience to build on.

What you need to get in

· 
You'll need to have or be on course for 112 UCAS tariff* (or equivalent)

· 
You'll need to have a Grade C or above in GCSE English Language and Mathematics (or equivalent)

Please note - due to the start date of Spring 2019, you will already need to have completed your A-levels or equivalent to apply to this position.

If you have a degree, you may find our graduate opportunities more appropriate. Having a degree does not lead to faster progression through this programme.

The deadline for completing your online assessments is 24th February 2019 at 11pm.
