Extended until Sunday! Audit (PwC Private) Trainee at PwC Australia

About Us

PwC Private Audit provides assurance to some of Australia’s largest private organisations across a diverse range of industries. You'll build  skills in accounting, problem-solving, critical thinking and relationship building. Our team builds trust in our clients’ financial reporting - whether this is for their lenders, investors, suppliers, employees or other stakeholders. Each engagement  is an exciting opportunity to learn, grow and better understand how businesses operate, taking a holistic approach as you assess risk to help organisations to succeed. 

What is the Trainee Program?

As a Trainee, you'll embark on a three-year journey of combined work and study with PwC. You'll join us as a full-time employee while you study part-time for two (2) years. You will take a break from full-time work to complete your degree in the third year! 

Balance is important. That's why you'll receive one (1) day of paid study while you work four (4) days a week! This means you’ll receive a full-time salary while you study! As a trainee, you’ll combine your university studies with work experience to build the perfect foundation for your career, all while receiving professional and financial support in a full-time paid role.

About the Opportunity
In the PwC Private Audit team, you’ll find yourself in a culture that values wellbeing and working together. Alongside your peers, you’ll solve problems like helping clients such as high net worth individuals as well as larger, more complex privately owned organisations ensure they comply with their financial reporting obligations through the timely delivery of high-quality external audit services. You'll use your skills in accounting and finance to make an impact across various industries. And along the way, you’ll build relationships and skills to set you up for a lifetime of success. 

What will a normal day look like? Well you can count on that every day you will: 

• Be a part of the External Audit team, which means you'll have the opportunity to learn and grow
• Gain an understanding of how businesses and organisations operate
• Take a holistic approach to assess risk to help organisations to succeed
• Use the latest technology to deliver an efficient and high quality audit
• Have plenty of time with our team members and clients - we value the face to face time we spend, understanding our teams and clients’ personal goals and objectives, so we can provide the best advice and assistance

As a trainee in Private Audit, the top three skills you’ll need to hit the ground running are: 

• Studying a major in Accounting 
• Strong problem solving skills and the ability to apply critical thinking 
• An eagerness to learn and grow both professionally and personally

Anticipated start date is 26 January, 2024.
