Work on real client challenges alongside tax, legal and advisory specialists.
Four weeks of live client work, structured learning and a team that wants to see you grow.
High performers may be considered for an early graduate offer before their final year.
Our Vacationer Program gives you the opportunity to work alongside specialists across tax, law and advisory, gaining hands-on experience with real clients and real projects while exploring where your interests could take you.
If you're passionate about supporting private businesses, family groups and entrepreneurs, you'll gain practical experience helping local clients achieve their goals, develop strong tax and accounting foundations, and build meaningful connections with people who are invested in your growth.
What will your typical day look like?
Over the course of your internship, you'll work alongside specialists across tax, accounting and advisory, gaining exposure to the challenges faced by private clients ranging from family groups and privately owned businesses to entrepreneurs and high-net-worth individuals.

Research and analyse tax and accounting issues for private clients, helping to develop practical and tailored solutions.
Support the preparation of client correspondence, technical documents and other deliverables, building your communication and technical skills.
Collaborate with experienced practitioners on client work and gain exposure to the commercial and strategic issues facing private businesses.
You won't be expected to know everything from day one. You'll be supported through structured onboarding, feedback and collaboration.
As well as learning in the flow of work, you'll take part in a paid summer internship offering real client exposure, project work, and structured onboarding. You'll have a dedicated buddy, access to networking and social events, and the opportunity to be considered for an early graduate offer.
