BDO Industrial Placement
Ideas | People | Trust
We’re BDO. An accountancy and business advisory firm, providing the advice and solutions businesses need to navigate today’s changing world.
The entrepreneurial businesses we work with are Britain’s economic engine – ambitious and high-growth businesses that fuel the economy – and the owners and management teams that lead them.
THIS IS WHERE IT ALL BEGINS
From the first business meeting to that well-earned promotion, and everything in between. Your career is your adventure, and it all starts here at BDO.
In a year that will stretch your experience beyond the classroom, early responsibility and purpose will be yours from the get-go. Our 12-month Industrial Placement Programme starts in September and could lead to an offer of a graduate role. Working with a variety of companies and surrounded by talented minds who will help you succeed, you’ll have the chance to contribute to a range of exciting projects as part of an ambitious team.
You’ll expand your portfolio of skills and experience a breadth of opportunities across one of four business streams:
Advisory
No two days are ever the same in Advisory. You could be working on anything from due diligence for an organisation looking to buy a new business, to helping a company restructure in times of financial difficulty.
Audit
Audit is about exploring whether an organisation’s financial position is true, fair and accurate. That means you’ll spend every day working as part of a close-knit team, working with individuals at all levels to understand their financial performance, business systems, culture and risks.
Tax
Tax is a rewarding area for diverse personalities, whether you enjoy untangling complex technical details, working with technology, relish connecting with and helping brilliant people, or love solving problems in new and unique ways.
Shared Service Centre (SSC)
Joining BDO’s Shared Service Centre (SSC) means being part of an exciting period of growth and change in one of our key business areas. You could work across every part of BDO, specialising in services that impact every client and help create real value by doing them efficiently and effectively. As well as assisting on large-scale operations, beyond the capacity of a core specialist team, you’ll provide the unparalleled expertise to keep the firm moving forward.
What we’re looking for
We want you to thrive in a warm and welcoming culture where you can be yourself. We’re looking for:
- A second year undergraduate university student on a four-year degree completing a work placement in your third year

- hree A-levels or equivalent at A* to C excluding General Studies and Extended Projects (obtained or predicted)
