An accountancy firm with branches in Tenby, Haverfordwest and Carmarthenshire is on the search for new Trainee Accountants to start this summer.

Those interested in training with Ashmole & Co can be school, college or university graduates. The firm will accept applications from those currently studying for their GCSEs, A Levels or Degree. Anyone who is looking for a new career in accountancy and those looking to do an internship during their degree studies are also encouraged to apply.

Vinal Patel is one of Ashmole & Co’s newest Partners. He joined Ashmole & Co as a trainee, straight from school, in 2002. Whilst working full time for the accountancy firm, for over 20 years, he has achieved his ATT and ACCA qualifications.

Vinal said, “The majority of the Partners at Ashmole & Co did their training with the firm. We strongly believe it is important as a profession that we help to train the next generation of accountants. I joined Ashmole & Co as a trainee and progressed within the firm. Our apprenticeship scheme will give you the practical skills and qualifications to eventually become a fully qualified accountant. You will also be given the opportunity to experience a wide variety of client work and specialisms.”

Those joining the Ashmole & Co Apprenticeship Scheme straight from school will start on the AAT path to qualifications and those joining us as college / university graduates will usually start on the ACCA qualification route.

The job description for the trainees includes:

  • Ensuring all clients are provided with an excellent service, meeting their deadlines, and supporting day to day queries that clients may have.
  • Working as part of a team processing clients’ accounts, tax returns, VAT returns and company secretary duties.
  • With the support of colleagues, you will ensure the smooth running of clients' accounting systems.

The successful candidates will be offered a fully-funded training package in addition to Ashmole & Co’s basic salary. They will be given a permanent contract and be expected to work full time.
