Trainee Tax Advisor Review

Indirect tax trainee tax advisor. tracking client's tax compliance and working with the indirect tax team in Birmingham to further my technical understanding. All this will involve constant correspondence with clients and the other EY territories.

I have developed my team work and professional manner. prioritisation is also a key skill as there are so many different tasks that have such different natures.

I love the programme as a whole- the working environment and social side of work is a huge part of my life at EY but exams and deadlines are an expected source of stress.

I feel like they value the investment they made in me - which drives all around me to see me suceed

This is one of the weaknesses - exam dates and availability is clearly unknown throughout the school leaver community and all other service lines outside audit seem to suffer as a side effect of their strict timetable.

during the last exam period the tutors were poor and the resources we were given could have been better.

From my team in the office lots- there is huge flexibility when studying but again the overall timetable of the programme is tailored towards audit so the other service lines suffer as part of that.

Just about - the wage is enough for me to support myself but I do feel there is a large gap between the school leaver wage and the graduate wage.

the growth environment means there is an abundance of opportunities to develop a career.

be confident but don't expect an easy ride,
