Why S&W?

At S&W, we believe a great early career experience is about more than just the work you do. It's about the people you learn from, the relationships you build and the experiences that help shape your future. Whether that's developing new skills, growing your confidence or celebrating success with your colleagues, you'll be part of a team that supports you to be yourself and succeed.

During your internship, you'll contribute to meaningful work, learn from experienced professionals and gain first-hand insight into life in professional services.

As one of the UK's fastest-growing accountancy and advisory firms, we offer a balance of opportunity and support. Your internship is a chance to experience life at S&W first-hand, get to know our people and culture, and explore what a future career with us could look like.

We see our interns as future talent, which is why many go on to secure a place on one of our Graduate programmes after completing your degree.

No previous experience in accountancy, finance or professional services is required. We're looking for people who are curious, motivated and eager to learn. What matters most is your attitude, potential and willingness to get involved.

Over the course of the internship, you'll gain valuable insight into life at S&W, develop professional skills, expand your network and build a deeper understanding of the opportunities available in Audit & Assurance.

You'll join as part of a cohort and benefit from support from colleagues across the business, giving you the opportunity to learn from people at different stages of their careers and build connections that last beyond the programme.
