Qualifications:

Experience and Expertise: 

Started in an Accountancy practice in 2005 as Payroll and Admin Assistant.

Worked my way through to payroll/admin manager then office/team manager which involved managing a team of accountants, trainee accountants and support staff, whilst overseeing office duties. Then progressed onto Senior Team Manager, which involved managing 3 team managers each with a team of accountants, trainee accountants and support staff.

Career Highlight: 

Working on designing/implementing new systems, practices and improvements to improve efficiency and make processes, reporting and tasks easier. It was great to be heavily involved in the full process and then to see the result and the benefits to the staff in practice.

Hobbies and Interests: 

Walking with my family and dog (Skye). Watching my son (Ryan) play football, he plays on a local team and is the goalkeeper.

My son was diagnosed with Tourette’s syndrome last year, therefore I have been learning a lot about the condition and have been trying to help the charity Tourette’s Action raise awareness and understanding to correct the misconceptions people have about Tourette’s syndrome.
