Team Tax Apprenticeship

As the 7th largest accounting firm in the UK and the 6th largest network of audit, tax and consulting firms worldwide, RSM delivers big ideas and a premium service to help middle-market businesses thrive. We are a fast-growing firm with big ambitions – we have a clear vision to become the premium adviser to the middle market, globally. This vision touches everything we do, motivating and inspiring us to become better every day. We know that great teams are made up of people from all backgrounds, with skills as varied as their personalities. If you are looking for a firm where you can build a future and make an impact, then RSM is the place for you.

Why join Team Tax?

A career in ‘Team Tax’ is about becoming a qualified accountant and/or tax adviser, understanding and applying tax laws both in the UK and internationally. It’s about applying the law to real life and working with our clients to add value - from saving money, ensuring they mitigate tax risks and comply with reporting requirements.

In Team Tax, you’ll combine work and study, gaining an understanding of tax as you build a career you love - so everybody wins! You’ll study towards the ACA, ATT and/or CTA professional qualifications (depending on which bit of Team Tax you join).

Tax is a technically demanding discipline, so we look for school leavers who are always up for a challenge and thrive grasping new subjects. While you don’t have to be a maths genius, you will need to be comfortable with numbers, have the ability to develop an analytical mindset, and enjoy the prospect of delving into tax legislation. As you grow in Team Tax, you’ll benefit from being mentored in a culture that wants you to be the best version of you, to grow and be part of RSM’s future.

You will get to work directly with clients. If it’s an individual it might be understanding their family wealth, how they create it and how they want to share it with future generations. If it’s a company then it might be understanding how they plan to grow, benefit from government tax incentives, return profits to stakeholders, expand internationally, or exit their business in a tax efficient manner.  

Recruitment Process

Your online application will be evaluated by our Early Years Careers team to ensure you have the right experience and meet our selection criteria. From online assessments to an assessment centre and interview, we will look to provide you with the best recruitment experience to set you up for a career in Team Tax. We welcome applicants who are adaptable, motivated and looking to elevate their careers to the next level.

Please note, for those who perform well throughout our assessment process, should your first preference be unavailable, you could potentially be offered a role in another location or department. This would always be discussed with you in this instance.

RSM will only take one application into consideration per recruitment cycle. We do not accept multiple applications for different vacancies.

1. 112 UCAS points across 3 A Levels or an equivalent level 3 qualification; and
