Work Experience Opportunities

We offer a number of work experience placements across our specialty areas in taxation, business advisory, audit, financial planning and superannuation. These placements are available throughout the year to both high-school and University students.

Due to the high demand for these placements and the limited number on offer each year, unfortunately we cannot assist all applicants. 

Applications for high-school students will also be accepted on the student’s behalf when direct contact is made by their school or education provider.
