MHA Moore and Smalley will create 60 new trainee positions this year in what is a record intake for the firm as part of its plans to develop a “new generation of talent”.
The firm aims to recruit a mix of university, college and sixth form graduates to positions within its tax, audit and advisory teams.
As trainees, they will work across the firm’s Northwest offices from September 2023, while being mentored by experienced colleagues and studying towards their professional qualifications.
MHA Moore and Smalley, which has offices across Greater Manchester, Merseyside, Lancashire and Cumbria, is part of a UK-wide network of independent accountants and business advisers with 30 offices nationwide. MHA collectively employs 106 partners, 1,152 staff and has a combined turnover of £124m.
Graham Gordon, managing partner for MHA Moore and Smalley, said: “To get the talent our clients are going to need in the years ahead will require us to recruit and train people at all levels of the firm.
“Investing in our trainee programme is particularly important for us as it allows us to continually refresh the firm with new skills and become more resilient to future challenges.”
He added: “We have expanded our trainee programme significantly in the last few years and this is allowing us to develop a new generation of talent. We want trainees to develop great futures with us where there are always growth opportunities and clear paths for career progression.”
Rebecca Coombes, HR director at MHA Moore and Smalley, said: “As well as their technical ability, we’re looking for people that personify our firm’s values, who can offer outstanding client service, and also help us create positive outcomes for our communities.”
