Summer placement scheme 

We offer various summer placements, usually from mid-July to mid-September.  These are now filled for 2024 but please do check the website in autumn for 2025 placement details.

Undergraduate programme

Our 12-month placements are a great opportunity for you to gain an insight into working in a professional business environment during your degree. With opportunities in audit, business services, corporate finance and tax, there is something for everyone. You will work with our clients from day one, receive first class training plus support from your ’buddy’ and Manager. 

By the end of your placement, you will have gained the fundamental business skills to help you with your accountancy career. You could also be on the fast-track to a graduate offer if that’s what you desire. We find that most students who join us on a placement go onto become an ACA trainee after graduation, qualifying as an accountant within 3 years.

Tom Bowen, Placement

"Joining the company for my university placement year, Hazlewoods allowed me to develop the skills learned in the classroom and apply them to the work environment. It was clear to me that personal growth and success play a big role in the firm, my mentor made sure I was always challenged and able to add value to the team.

Hazlewoods is big enough to allow me to work on a wide variety of jobs, yet small enough to build strong relationships with Managers and Partners alike. The skills I have learned are invaluable and have equipped me well, ready for my future career."
