Finance Apprentice

Type: Apprentice
Region: London

What will I be doing?

As an apprentice, your two-year development programme will be made up of six placement rotations which will develop your understanding of the different aspects that make up Finance as a business function. Alongside this, you’ll be studying for the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA) Certificate in Business Accounting qualification through the Level 4 Accountancy Taxation Professional apprenticeship.

Our aim is to equip you with the range of skills and experience you need for your successful career. We also understand that everyone’s career and ambitions are different, so every apprentice’s journey with us is unique.

Here’s an idea of what you could get involved with:

Record to Account

Providing your customers with forecasting support, while maintaining the accuracy of our financial data. You’ll be reviewing and preparing journal entries, account reconciliations and validations.

Order to Cash

You could be providing access to purchasing services or goods. You might also assist with apportioning fare revenue to internal and external business units, or with identifying revenue leaks.

Accounts Payable

In supporting the Accounts Payable team, you would be responsible for the timely and accurate processing of our supplier invoices, and the prompt resolution of any queries to ensure that all payments are made on time.

Master Data

Master Data underpins many of our financial systems and services. You will ensure that fundamental data are correct, kept accurately, shown consistently and shared with the right people at the right time.

Reporting

Supporting key financial decisions by providing real-time, standardised reports to your internal customers.

Business Partnering

Test your skills by supporting business areas to make commercial and investment decisions which affect the future of London. You could work in major delivery units such as London Underground, Major Projects or Commercial Development.
