If I hand my notice in and am on the bench, will I be forced to work my notice period? Is it possible to negotiate an earlier finish date? Feels like this would be in Accentures favour

Nope. Very likely you'll be given an immediate exit and paid for your notice period

So if we hand in our resignation while on bench we are paid for only 2 weeks if they exit us immediately?

Where did you get this from? Your notice is typically 1 month or 3 month. If you resign and they don’t want you to work your notice they will pay you PILON payment in lieu of notice which is your notice period amount 1 or 3. Months.
