Career path not a job

Employees at BDO do not have a job, with little prospects from year to year. Our employees have a career. You will work as part of a team and gain hands-on experience across all aspects of your discipline. You will be exposed to a broad range of clients and industries and will be given responsibility early on in your career.

Getting to that position means starting out on the right foot. We try to make our training as flexible as possible, but people do find that certain areas suit their interests and skills more than others.

When you join us, your interests and career path at BDO will be mapped out for you, in discussion with your manager and partner. We will work with you to help you develop the skills and expertise you need to grow with us and help us deliver the best possible service to our clients. All our staff has access to the latest information technology and are constantly trained on, and work with, the latest computer packages related to their field.

In addition to formal training courses, BDO offers on-the-job training with the support of all managers and partners and our performance appraisal process encourages continuous staff development. Each office has its own library and its own study assistance programme, with study leave benefits.
