When leaving college, I knew that university wasn’t the right path for me but was unsure what to do next. That’s when I came across the apprenticeship opportunities at Hazlewoods, and it instantly felt like the right choice for me.

Since joining, I’ve had the chance to gain valuable experience whilst working towards my qualifications – all with the amazing support of my colleagues. In just two years here, I have grown so much both professionally and personally.”

Ignite your career with us.

We recognise that some people want to start their career as soon as possible. If university is not for you, we offer our Ignite accountancy apprenticeship, which fully supports your journey through to ACA qualification.

Our academic requirements are 112 UCAS points earned through A Levels or BTEC, and Grade 6 or above in both Maths and English Language. We support your journey and work alongside a first-class study provider to deliver the best possible teaching and support.

Our apprentices study alongside work. Having partnered with First Intuition for a number of years, we have been consistently delighted with the training and personal support that they provide. Tutors are approachable and supportive, giving regular feedback on progress to ensure you’re on the right track.

Hazlewoods pays for all associated study costs, give extra days off for revision and exams and we pay all travel expenses.

Whether your interests lie in audit, tax or business advisory, we offer excellent professional experience to build your business skills alongside your theoretical knowledge and match you with a ‘buddy’ mentor to support you.
