We're one of the fastest growing parts of the country and the third most diverse London borough. Our communities are attracted by a mixture of excellent schools, relatively affordable housing, high-quality open space and rapid transport connections into the heart of the City.

Once you complete your apprenticeship and AAT studies there is the potential to move through the career progression levels within the team and continue your career with us.
You will also need to demonstrate an awareness or interest in finance, and an ability to be a team player. Above all, you will show a passion for the work we are doing and the drive to achieve great results with a willingness to learn.
