We are offering a unique, modern two-year structured development programme within the HMRC Finance Community. Our financial services are vital not only to the everyday running of HMRC but to building the Department’s future as a trusted, modern tax and customs department.

During your two years on the development scheme, you will carry out two different work placements across finance teams, enabling you to gain an understanding of the different roles in finance and to broaden out your experience and exposure. Placements will be decided by the Finance People and Capability Team.

Areas of work placements may include but are not limited to:

Financial Accounting and Reporting: delivering core financial controls, providing technical accounting advice and producing the annual report and accounts.

Management reporting: working on in-year financial management as well as non-financial data, contributing to the numbers by providing insight and analysis.

Finance Business Partnering: facilitating and challenging plans, budgets, and forecasts; analysing and communicating financial data and reports; supporting investment appraisals and business cases; finding solutions to address sophisticated business issues.

Risk Management: ensuring HMRC’s risk and control framework and risks are managed effectively so that good decisions and outcomes can be made.

Strategic Finance: developing an understanding of the department’s financial position and the policy and operational choices available in which to manage it.

This is a development programme in finance for qualified accountants. We are looking for enthusiastic individuals who can demonstrate the traits to become our senior leaders of the future.
