**Corporate finance - get the career you want at RSM**

Our graduate apprenticeship programme within the mergers and acquisitions team will give you all the skills and support you need to unlock a future in corporate finance that’s packed with opportunities and new experiences. You’ll enjoy a fast-tracked business career that recognises your potential and rewards your ambition.

When you join our team, you’ll enjoy a powerful combination of on-the-job learning and structured training - not to mention an impressive client list to work with. You’ll discover a culture that nurtures individuality and an environment where everyone is supported to reach their potential. With us, you’ll always be moving forward.

**What does our mergers and acquisitions (M&A) team do?**

Our mergers and acquisitions team sits within the corporate finance department at RSM, which is one of the most active corporate finance advisers in the UK, advising on more than 1,000 deals in the past five years.

We advise private shareholders and management teams that are looking to sell their business, raise money for growth, or carry out a management buy-out. Our M&A team also advise companies on identifying and executing acquisitions. We advise our clients throughout the entire transaction lifecycle to ensure they maximise value and achieve the best possible deal. This includes pitching to new clients, helping them prepare the business for a transaction, researching the options available, and negotiating the terms of the deal.

At RSM, we work with clients across a range of sectors, including technology, manufacturing, and business services, amongst others. No two days are the same in M&A, and you are likely to be involved in preparing pitches, producing sector research, and analysing a company’s financial performance early on. During your time at RSM you will have the opportunity to hit the ground running and make meaningful contributions on the projects you work on from day one.

**What can you expect?**

In our mergers and acquisitions team, you will be working on live projects and given responsibility from day one. You will be a valued member of the deal team and included in key discussions and meetings with senior internal and external stakeholders to the firm. You’ll learn what makes a business attractive to investors and buyers, and the possible funding options for companies looking to grow. You’ll be working with businesses and entrepreneurs from a broad range of industries and sectors, as well as liaising with experts and advisors from other fields, such as law and banking. This hands-on experience is invaluable as you take the next steps in your career.

At RSM, you’ll benefit from on-the-job training from more senior members of the team and gain access to our internal training courses that will help you develop in the role, including courses to teach you M&A and corporate finance specific skills. These residential courses give you the opportunity to interact with your peers and learn directly from service line experts within our departments.

When you join this team, you’ll work towards the ACA qualification with the Institute of Chartered Accountants of England and Wales (ICAEW), or your Chartered Accountancy (CA) qualification with the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Scotland (ICAS) or with Chartered Accountants Ireland (CAI).

**What we look for**

We’re on the lookout for graduates with a ‘can-do’ attitude, who are prepared to work hard and take on high levels of responsibility. In M&A you will work in small teams, working closely with external stakeholders and other advisers, so we also look for team players who enjoy interacting with others and are curious about how businesses work. Time management and organisational skills are key as you may be working on multiple projects at the same time, as well as studying towards a professional accountancy qualification. You should be confident with numbers but also have excellent written communication skills and a keen attention to detail.

If that sounds like you, we know you’ll enjoy being part of our team.

**Locations**

For those who perform well across all of the tasks at our virtual assessment centre, should your first geographic preference be unavailable, you will be offered a role in one of our specialist teams at one of our M&A hubs. You may also potentially be offered a role in another department. This would always be discussed with you in the first ins
