1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

My role as an audit associate is to go out to a verity of different clients with other members of the project field team to complete audit work. The hours can sometimes be long and you can end up working away a lot but the business and finance experience is great. We also get training provided for the ACA. This involves attending college for tutoring and revision.
