What was your journey to Sellick Partnership?

I was straight out of university looking for a Graduate Accounting role. I particularly wanted to work within Management Accounts rather than a chartered firm of accountants, as I wanted to feel integrated into a business.

What was it about Sellick Partnership that convinced you to take a role here?

I liked that there was a small team environment as I knew that I would get the opportunity to learn all aspects of accounting as well as have the chance to start my accounting qualification.

What’s your biggest achievement to date in your role?

Becoming a CIMA-qualified Accountant. It was a huge amount of time and work both in terms of exams and gathering evidence for my professional experience requirements. I feel really proud that I passed everything the first time.

What are the best things about your role?

I’m very lucky to be in one of the most unique positions within Sellick Partnership where I have an overview of all the teams in the business. I love seeing the success of both individuals and teams, it has been a pleasure to see our contractor numbers grow over the years and I look forward to this continuing!

What are the most challenging? 

I get very nervous before presenting at our annual End of Financial Year Awards. Finding the balance between being prepared and over-rehearsed is definitely a challenge.

Outside of your job, what else do you enjoy about Sellick Partnership?

I love running the Sellick Partnership book club. We get together once a month and discuss our chosen book. It is a lovely opportunity to get to know my colleagues a bit more and have really interesting conversations.
