Access a bigger professional market
Work with a US team, earn in dollars and build contacts beyond the UK. Whether you want a placement year, a graduate internship or professional training, we arrange a role connected to your background.
Understand a US business from the numbers
A US placement can let you see how another team approaches reporting, budgeting or commercial analysis. Bring examples from your UK course or employment that show how you reached a conclusion. Compare the proposed responsibilities and supervision with your goals before focusing on the name of the city.
The work you could do
We match your background to the employer and role. Typical areas of work include:
- Support financial reporting and accounting processes
- Contribute to budgeting and treasury analysis
- Prepare supervised corporate-finance research
- Explore risk or investment research where suitable
Prepare for your employer interviews
Accounting, finance, economics, business and relevant quantitative study or professional experience.
Prepare examples of analysis, reporting, accounting study or research. Explain your assumptions and what the numbers mean, not just the software you used. Relevant professional experience should be described through responsibilities and processes, without sharing confidential client or employer information.
Your paid placement, arranged before departure
Aureus prepares you for employer interviews, secures your paid placement and coordinates the J-1 process. Your proposal sets out the programme fee and guarantee before you enrol; your employer offer confirms the role, hours, location and pay. Budget separately for travel and living costs where these are not included.
