Over three days you'll network with our colleagues, learn more about what we do and the meaningful difference we make to businesses and the communities we serve.
  • The programme will be offered to students with a disability or long term health condition who are in their first year of study on a three year programme or in their second year of study on a four year programme. Whilst on the programme, you’ll have the opportunity to take an assessment, and if successful, you could secure a position on one of our 2025 Tax vacation programmes, which may lead to a potential 2026 graduate offer.
