• A supportive placement experience – Receive comprehensive training, mentoring and regular feedback from experienced colleagues who are invested in your development.
• Progression that's planned, not promised – Build valuable technical, client-service and commercial skills that can support your progression into a future career in accountancy.
• A culture that gives back – Through the PEM Charitable Trust, our people nominate and award grants of up to £2,000 to local Cambridge charities. To date, we’ve donated over £95,000 and celebrated our 150th grant in 2025.
