BDO : Employer profile

Company profile

Not all big accountancy firms are the same. At BDO we're building a strikingly different business, focused on exceptional client service. We employ exceptional people - and help them get on with the job, without needless bureaucracy. Our systems work to support our people, not the other way around. We're looking for graduates who don't fit the conventional accountancy mould. Talented people with the imagination and initiative to make a real difference - to be the difference that matters so much to our clients.

We don't want clones. Our people are as diverse as our clients. We want individuals who can think for themselves, appreciate and respect people whoever they are, build relationships and take personal responsibility for results.

Our training is as exceptional - and individual - as the people we recruit. Most study for the ACA, but we also offer routes to other professional qualifications. Training is tailored to their needs and centred on first-hand experience. That's why they get such excellent results. We offer opportunities in a range of exciting areas from tax to forensic services, with the chance to take real responsibility on client projects alongside partners and colleagues.

Refreshingly, our partners are known for their hands-on involvement in client work, and mutual support is an essential part of our culture. That's one reason why we've figured repeatedly in The Sunday Times and FT best places to work lists, and The Times Top 100 Graduate Employers.

You could spend time abroad: as a global accountancy network, we have more than 1,000 offices in over 100 countries. Wherever we work, we're engaged with the local community. Our strong corporate social responsibility programme encourages all of us to 'give something back' by volunteering and considering our impact on the environment.
