The Count CA Programme was established in 2015 to offer newly qualified CAs a unique entry into the banking sector through rotations (up to two years) within core areas of RMB.
This accelerated learning experience gives participants a deep understanding of Corporate and Investment Banking and opens doors for those who may not have had the opportunity to audit within the financial services sector or gain experience outside of an audit practice.
Step change your career with our rotational programme that offers newly qualified CAs unique insights, skills and experience to thrive in Corporate and Investment Banking. If you are a driven and diverse thinker with a curious and perceptive mind, then the Count CA Programme could be the ideal opportunity for you.
