An Accounting Training job is a role designed to provide hands-on experience and foundational knowledge in accounting principles, financial reporting, and bookkeeping. It is often aimed at entry-level candidates, interns, or professionals looking to enhance their accounting skills. Responsibilities may include assisting with financial record-keeping, reconciling accounts, preparing reports, and learning about tax regulations. Training may be conducted in-house by companies or through structured programs offered by accounting firms. This role helps individuals develop practical skills necessary for a career in accounting.

Excelling in Accounting Training requires a solid grasp of accounting principles, instructional skills, and typically a degree in accounting or finance alongside relevant teaching or training experience. Familiarity with accounting software such as QuickBooks, SAP, or Oracle, as well as certification like CPA or CMA, is highly valued in this field. Excellent communication, patience, and organizational skills help trainers convey complex concepts effectively and adapt to trainees’ learning needs. These competencies are critical to ensuring trainees gain practical, job-ready accounting knowledge that meets organizational goals.

What qualifications do I need to be an accounting training trainee?

To become an accounting training trainee, candidates typically need a high school diploma or equivalent; some positions prefer or require a college degree in accounting, finance, or related fields. Basic knowledge of accounting principles and proficiency with accounting software like Excel or QuickBooks are also beneficial. Certifications such as a CPA or bookkeeping courses can enhance prospects but are not always mandatory for entry-level training roles.

This position offers variety and the opportunity to directly impact the efficiency and accuracy of company financial operations.

Job description

UnitedHealth Group is a health care and well-being company that's dedicated to improving the health outcomes of millions around the world. We are comprised of two distinct and complementary businesses, UnitedHealthcare and Optum, working to build a better health system for all. Here, your contributions matter as they will help transform health care for years to come. Make an impact with a team that shares your passion for helping others. Join us to start Caring. Connecting. Growing together.
Ready to bring your technical accounting expertise closer to the business? This is a rare opportunity for a technically solid, business minded professional to step into a highly visible advisory role where accounting expertise directly influences strategic decisions, complex transactions, and business outcomes. In this role, you will be a go-to partner for functions spanning the enterprise, helping the organization evaluate the accounting implications of major initiatives, structure thoughtful solutions, and turn complexity into clear, actionable guidance.
This role is designed for someone who enjoys the intellectual challenge of technical accounting but wants more than memos and checklists. You will sit closer to the business, work on the transactions and decisions that matter, and have the opportunity to influence outcomes before they are finalized. The ideal candidate is a high-performer with solid technical depth , who is ready for a more strategic, consultative, and business-facing role.
Why This Role Stands Out:
  • Be at the table for strategic transactions, accounting judgments, and business decisions, not just after the fact
  • Partner with leaders across finance and the business on complex, high-stakes issues
  • Develop relationships across the enterprise by serving as an advisor to M&A, controllership, treasury, tax, legal and more
  • Build a career path that combines technical excellence, strategic insight, and viewpoints that span the organization

This position follows a hybrid schedule with four in-office days per week.
Primary Responsibilities:
  • Serve as a strategic advisor to business and finance leaders by evaluating complex accounting matters, developing practical solutions, and driving timely, supportable conclusions
  • Participate in due diligence for mergers and acquisitions including target financial statement analysis and accounting policy review, transaction agreement review, purchase accounting considerations, auditor workpaper review, and "day 2" integration matters
  • Prepare crisp executive summaries, accounting analyses, and leadership materials that make complex accounting issues understandable, actionable, and relevant to the business
  • Perform detailed research and document technical accounting conclusions in clear, persuasive memoranda when necessary
  • Monitor FASB, SEC and other accounting developments and advise key stakeholders (i.e. Chief Accounting Officer, Controllers, Investor Relations, Segment Finance Leadership) of potential impacts
  • Monitor and evolve accounting policies so they remain current, practical, scalable, and aligned with U.S. GAAP, SEC developments, and business needs
  • Provide accounting support and build solid partnerships with key stakeholders across numerous functions including M&A, controllership, treasury, tax, legal and others
  • Support the annual goodwill impairment testing process, including coordination with finance and business partners
  • Own and enhance selected internal controls related to accounting policies, goodwill impairment procedures and select stock compensation matters
  • Manage complex projects from issue identification through final conclusion ensuring deadlines are met
    • Develop and deliver technical accounting training to the organization as needed
    • Support SEC reporting on special projects, disclosures, and other matters as need arises

You'll be rewarded and recognized for your performance in an environment that will challenge you and give you clear direction on what it takes to succeed in your role as well as provide development for other roles you may be interested in.
Required Qualifications:
  • 6+ years of public accounting or equivalent technical accounting experience including SEC and public company experience
  • Material accounting research experience in a broad range of transactions
  • Experience documenting complex accounting positions, including summarizing transactions and the related accounting literature
  • Solid understanding of and experience in U.S. GAAP
  • Proven solid written and verbal communication skills
    • Proven ability to prepare concise board and executive level summaries and presentations
    • Proven ability to prepare and present technical accounting trainings to internal business partners
  • Proven desire and ability to produce high quality, original documents with attention to detail
  • Proven desire and ability to work autonomously and own projects end-to-end
  • Proven ability to manage competing priorities and to meet tight deadlines
  • Proven ability to leverage relationships and communicate effectively within a team setting

Pay is based on several factors including but not limited to local labor markets, education, work experience, certifications, etc. In addition to your salary, we offer benefits such as, a comprehensive benefits package, incentive and recognition programs, equity stock purchase and 401k contribution (all benefits are subject to eligibility requirements). No matter where or when you begin a career with us, you'll find a far-reaching choice of benefits and incentives. The salary for this role will range from $112,700 - $193,200 annually based on full-time employment. We comply with all minimum wage laws as applicable.
At UnitedHealth Group, our mission is to help people live healthier lives and make the health system work better for everyone. We believe everyone-of every race, gender, sexuality, age, location and income-deserves the opportunity to live their healthiest life. Today, however, there are still far too many barriers to good health which are disproportionately experienced by people of color, historically marginalized groups and those with lower incomes. We are committed to mitigating our impact on the environment and enabling and delivering equitable care that addresses health disparities and improves health outcomes - an enterprise priority reflected in our mission.
UnitedHealth Group is an Equal Employment Opportunity employer under applicable law and qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, national origin, religion, age, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, or protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by local, state, or federal laws, rules, or regulations.
