Y11 Summer Work Experience

1-2 week summer work experience placements, providing students with hands-on insight into the industry and company. This is a great chance for Year 11 students to gain insight into the professional world and learn more about how AAB support clients and the type of work we do.

Work experience students who complete the programme successfully and are interested in gaining further experience may be invited back to undertake a paid summer placement the following year.

Y12 Paid Summer Placements

4-8 week paid placements over the summer holidays. These placements give students in-depth exposure to the world of work and AAB, and will involve learning the basics of technical tax, shadowing at client meetings, and drafting up client advice and compliance deliverables. 

Placement students who complete the programme successfully and are looking to undertake an apprenticeship after finishing 6th Form may be offered a full-time apprenticeship role at the end of the programme. 

Students interested in either programme should send their CV and a brief cover letter with amy.rubens@aab.uk and jessica.constable@aab.uk (Amy is a former Tiffin Girls' student). Placements can take place during the school holidays but they are also able to accommodate other time in the year.
