Higher Education

The higher education sector faces substantial obstacles to overcome within the next few years, with many issues centred on the current UK political climate.

UK higher education (HE) institutions are amongst the leaders in global innovation in research and teaching. Whilst maintaining the same excellence in teaching and learning, HE institutions must also face the major challenges of Brexit uncertainty, global competition, research funding concerns, and continued investment in staff, infrastructure, and student facilities in order to remain competitive and provide value for money to students.

We work with a range of institutions across the UK. As a truly international accountancy partnership, we are also able to assist HE institutions wherever they operate throughout the world. We have participated in the HEFCE (Higher Education Funding Council for England) Audit Liaison Group and CHEIA (Council of Higher Education Internal Auditors) so we can both add to the debate on issues and developments and keep our clients informed.

Our specialist Education team can advise you on a wide range of services tailored to meet the needs of their organisation. This includes external and internal audit, working capital reviews, governance and board/audit committee effectiveness, business performance improvement, carbon reduction charge, pensions and grants.
