Apprentice – Accountancy Level 2

Fixed term contract for 15 months

Worcester based with a balance of home and office working

Starting salary year 1: £19,072.44

35 hours per week

In partnership with our training provider HWGTA, we’re offering a Level 2 Accountancy Apprenticeship - an ideal starting point for students leaving school or sixth form who want to begin a career straight away.

You’ll join one of the largest organisations in Worcestershire, gaining practical, hands-on experience across our finance functions. Based at our Head Office, you’ll rotate through key roles within our Shared Service Centre, helping you build a strong foundation in finance while learning on the job.

This apprenticeship is just the start. With the right commitment and performance, you’ll have the opportunity to progress your training and continue your journey towards becoming a fully qualified accountant. We’re committed to supporting you every step of the way, providing the time, guidance, and resources you need to succeed both at work and in your studies.

What will you do?

You will be working from the Worcester office, in our shared service centre. As part of your job role, you will be asked to complete tasks including processing cashsheets and correcting errors on invoices. All of this will be supported by the team around you, ensuring you are getting the best out of your apprenticeship!

What skills and abilities do I need to have?

We want candidates who understand and can demonstrate a commitment to a career in accountancy.

We look for candidates who live and breathe our values; Ambition, Inclusion, Integrity, Quality and Sustainability - and have a willingness to learn. They should demonstrate enthusiasm and dedication to their interests and commitments.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
