Find your Future with Amazon Apprenticeships

Investment in Apprentices is in our DNA. We look to constantly innovate and create. In order to do this, we recognize that whilst technology is a partner, it’s our people that power us.

We’re looking for those with a passion for learning. You’ll need to be committed to your own development whilst implementing what you are learning as you progress through your program. In return we provide first class on the job coaching, specialist partner training and unparalleled experiences. You’ll be working within a diverse, innovative environment where you will be challenged to excel and contribute.

This apprenticeship program offers a comprehensive introduction to the world of finance and the chance to obtain industry-recognized qualifications whilst working alongside experienced professionals.

A career as an accountancy, finance or taxation professional can be diverse and challenging; it's not just about putting numbers into a spreadsheet. Accountancy, finance or taxation professionals use technical knowledge, skills, technology and experience to lead organizations and people to make responsible and sustainable financial decisions. They are required to act in the public interest and must therefore maintain the highest standards of professional conduct and competency; upholding ethical behavior and integrity at all times.

You will learn how to perform financial analysis, solve complex problems and represent your team in wider business projects. This role will require you to have strong numerical skills and a good attention to detail. You will be working in a fast-paced environment and working to deadlines. You will also possess strong communication skills.

As a Finance/Tax Apprentice at Amazon, you’ll gain a vast range of useful experiences and skills. You will work towards the Level 7 accountancy or taxation Professional apprenticeship standard as well as certification from The Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA).

You will build your skills over 36-month period, starting in September, which will help you develop personally and professionally. Your apprenticeship will be made up of;
- Classroom/virtual based training to cover knowledge
- On-the-job training at your Amazon base location
- Online learning
- Mentoring from our Finance, Accounting and Tax team members

Alongside extensive development of your technical skills, you will also grow your abilities in crucial complementary areas like organization, prioritization, data and problem-solving techniques, teamwork, communication, presentation skills and document writing.

You will attend a number of workshops across the duration of the apprenticeship, workshops may be a mix of face to face and online delivery by a training provider. You will also attend internal trainings to support you in developing Amazon related skills and knowledge. Depending on the scheme and location of the training provider you may be required to travel and stay overnight (costs will be supported by Amazon).

Key job responsibilities

You will be combining working in your assigned team as a Finance Apprentice whilst continuing your studies to achieve your qualification. As a working student your focus is to complete your studies in your 20% off the job time by learning and developing your skills, knowledge and behaviors to work towards successful graduation. You will be set objectives and goals by your training provider and manager to support your studies.

While your day-to-day responsibilities will vary based on your team, you’ll make a meaningful contribution to our business from the beginning. Examples of your day to day activities you would be expected to deliver on include:

- Helping automate month end close activities
- Taking part in the financial statement process, including liaising with our external auditors
- Preparing detailed financial analysis and sharing your conclusions with senior members of the team
- Representing your team on new business launches and gathering the accounting, finance or tax requirements
