A bit about us
Big enough to matter. Personal enough to care. That’s BDO.
Want to help solve complex challenges, support transparency and enable decisions that shape businesses and lives? Welcome to the Audit Graduate Programme at BDO.
The programme starts on Monday, 21st September 2026 for a firm-wide induction (you’ll need to be able to attend).
Audit at BDO means variety, challenge and impact. You’ll be part of a team delivering high-quality reporting that supports key decisions and makes a real difference to the economy. And you won’t do it alone – you’ll work alongside experienced professionals who value learning, teamwork, and pride in getting it right.
Here, your career starts with work that matters. You’ll celebrate wins, learn through practical day-to-day experience, and gain a deep understanding of how businesses work from the inside out.
And a bit about Audit
Over three years, you’ll gain hands-on experience across a wide range of clients and sectors. You’ll work on audits that shape critical business decisions, all while studying towards a globally recognised ACA, CFAB or ICAS qualification. With the support of in-house experts, you’ll build technical, commercial and leadership skills that go far beyond the classroom.
This is a programme designed to launch a career with long-term progression. Many of our graduates go on to specialise, lead teams, and shape strategy within the firm. What you do here will open doors you might not have considered and set you up for a career that goes beyond the ordinary. When you complete the programme, there’s a permanent role waiting for you.
As for you
You’re curious, resilient and adaptable. You’re eager to take responsibility, learn fast, and make an impact. Bring problem-solving, strong analytical skills and critical thinking – we’ll help you develop everything else.

One thing to note: you’ll need to live within a commutable distance of the office you apply to. Relocation support is not provided, so please consider this carefully before applying. Time in the office matters; for your learning, for building relationships, and for being part of our culture.
Is it for you? To apply, you’ll need:
A minimum 2:2 degree in any discipline (obtained or predicted)
Three A-levels, all at grade C and above (excluding General Studies and Extended Projects), or four Scottish Advanced Highers at grade A-B (or equivalent, e.g., BTEC Extended Diploma). Please note: we do not use UCAS points. You’ll be asked to provide evidence if you’re successful in securing an offer
GCSEs at grade 4 and above in Maths and English, or Scottish National 5 grade A-C. You’ll also need to provide evidence if successful
Commitment to balance study and professional work
The right to work in the UK (we are unable to provide visa sponsorship for these roles as they do not meet the current minimum salary requirements for sponsorship set by the Home Office. Applications from candidates who have their own legal right to work within the UK must cover the duration of their 3-year training contract and employment)
How the interview process will go
We want you to know what to expect, so here’s the typical process:
1. Online application form.
2. Online assessments (with the option to sit these in our office, where we can provide a laptop and space if you don’t have access to one).
3. Video interview.
4. Virtual assessment centre.
5. Final interview in-person.
We’ll keep you updated at each stage and share resources to help you prepare. And just so you know: we don’t use AI in any part of our candidate screening process. Every application is reviewed by a person.
Before you go
We’ve got 18 offices across the UK, but wherever you join us, you’ll be part of a team that cares. You’ll learn by doing, be supported by people who’ve been in your shoes, and build skills that actually matter. We’re serious about your well-being, flexible about how you work, and offer benefits that support you inside and outside of work.
Big enough to open doors. Personal enough to walk through them with you.
