TRAIN TO BE A QUALIFIED ACCOUNTANT
We are looking for motivated, driven graduates to join our finance teams within the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead Council and the Royal County of Berkshire Pension Fund. This is an opportunity designed for graduates who are keen to join the world of public finance and make a positive impact on their local community. You will train to become a dedicated finance profession with the Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy (CIPFA).
Throughout the graduate scheme, you will be fully supported by a CIPFA coach, your line manager, and other CIPFA trainees. We foster a culture of working as One Team where you will have access to a network of public sector financial experts to help you develop into a well-rounded qualified accountant. Support, guidance and training will be given to the post holder to assist in effective delivery of responsibilities.
Our graduate scheme entails 3.5 years of rotational placements alongside achieving public sector specific accounting qualifications (CIPFA Level 7).
The post-holder will model the Council’s values and behaviours to help us achieve our ambition of creating and maintaining a resilient and high-performing finance function. You can expect to get involved in tasks such as:
- Liaising with budget managers to provide support in monitoring budgets.
