    Hi Laksman - our Assurance IPs will have a chance to get involved in lots of exciting work! This might include:

    - Getting to know our clients, their businesses and how they work
    - Testing checks and balances to ensure they work how they’re supposed to
    - Analysing the data that goes into a financial statement to make sure it is true and fair
    - You’ll also spend substantial periods of time travelling to other offices and client sites
    - You will be expected to work longer hours during peak times in client delivery work – this is especially the case during busy season when you may need to work over weekends too
