Job Description

Endava has launched a three-year Finance Graduate Programme designed to give graduates and undergraduates a unique opportunity to gain hands-on industry experience within the Endava Finance Team. The programme provides exposure to real-world finance operations, deepens technical knowledge, and helps participants build the professional relationships that will support long-term career growth.

Throughout the programme, each Finance Trainee will complete a minimum of three rotations—typically one year each—carefully structured to develop both technical expertise and essential soft skills across key Finance and Accounting areas. Trainees will also be paired with an experienced mentor who will offer continuous guidance, coaching, and support at every stage.

Rotation areas may include: Procure to Pay, Record to Report, Contracts to Cash, Financial Planning & Analysis, Tax and Treasury, or SOX compliance—providing a well-rounded foundation for a successful career in Finance.

At the end of the programme, we hope to offer our Trainees a permanent role within (their preferred area of) our Finance organisation where they will continue to develop their career and professional skills.  In addition, we provide paid study leave to support exam preparation and attending the exam, alongside travel expenses to exam centres if needed and any course materials/text books etc are also supported by Endava.

The Finance Trainee will participate in all soft skill and technical training along with the rotation teams.
