You don’t need to be an accountancy graduate or have achieved a specific grade in your honours degree to join us.

Our trainees come from a variety of backgrounds and have studied a range of degree subjects. Our trainees join us straight from university or later in their careers.

What matters is that you’ve got great analytical and people skills, are committed to studying for a professional qualification, and excel in a challenging and rewarding role.

Candidates requiring sponsorship
Please note Audit Scotland is unable to provide sponsorship to candidates for this role under the Skilled Worker visa category as the Home Office’s eligibility criteria will not be met.

Candidates must demonstrate that they have the right to live and work in the UK for the duration of the Trainee Auditor employment and training which typically lasts 54 months.

This could be from a visa granting permission to work in the UK independently (for example: a dependent or ancestry visa or settled status).

Who are we?
Our vision is that public money is well spent to meet the needs of Scotland's people. To achieve this, we support the Auditor General for Scotland and the Accounts Commission to provide clear, independent, and objective assurance on how effectively public money is being managed and spent. Our work covers about £59bn of public spending, almost 300 public sector accounts, and the services and projects that affect all people and communities in Scotland.

As well as what we do, how we do it is integral to delivering our vision and critical to our wellbeing and our organisational success. We put our organisational values of equality, independence, innovation, integrity, and respect at the heart of everything we do.

How we work
We employ around 340 staff in a wide variety of roles, working from our offices in Edinburgh, Glasgow and Inverness and through a network of regional offices across Scotland.

We currently have trainee opportunities available across Scotland in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Inverness and Aberdeen. Our trainee opportunities are available on a 54 month fixed-term contract.

We operate a hybrid working environment whereby our trainees can expect to work a mixture of at home, in the office and at client sites.
