Whilst on the programme, you’ll also have the opportunity to take an

autumn 2025 graduate programme or a autumn 2026 graduate programme,
depending on your graduation year.
We offer the following programmes nationwide:
The Social Mobility Talent Insight Programme is aimed at students who
come from a lower socio-economic background who are seeking an insight
into a career in Audit or Tax and are in their penultimate, final year
of study or have already graduated.
By ‘lower socio economic background’ we mean students who:
- Attended state school or college, and
- The occupation of your main household earner when you were aged 14 is
categorised as a lower socio-economic background*, or
- When you were at school, you were eligible for free school meals (or
attended a school with ‘above regional average’ free school meals**), or
- You were the first member of your immediate family to attend
university.
*Parental occupation classification is a national standard and the
Social Mobility Work’s toolkit (found here) provides details on the
categorisations.
**Free School Meals are a statutory benefit available to school-aged
children from families who receive other qualifying benefits and who
have been through the relevant registration process. It does not include
those who receive meals at school through other means e.g. boarding
school.
