You don't think an accountant working in an accountancy firm can become a partner...?

The Chairman of PwC is a chartered accountant.

Yes, they can.

Okay thanks. I was curious. Can you tell me how do they go up to that level

Like anyone else at the firm?

You work hard, get good performance ratings, get promoted, start to take on more of a leadership and client origination role.. And hopefully, after 15+ years and a very stringent vetting process, you get called up to be a partner within one of the audit/tax/advisory practices.

Yes.

Google their graduate schemes. (GCSEs will not matter when you have A-levels and a Degree, except possibly minimum requirements for Maths and/or English).
