Financial Analyst role consisted of reviewing all global financial data for client reporting as well as internal review of capacity in the business. From November 2016 I was also the budget manager which involved liaising with many different parts of the business to build up our budget for the forthcoming financial year.

London, United Kingdom

Working for myself when arriving in London I picked up a roll with Tullow Oil working on Joint venture accounting and audits on their African oil interests. This roll was extremely varied an involved in negotiations and conversations with many internal and external stakeholders.

Tasmania, Australia

I started with Ruddicks whilst at Universtiy and progressed through to becoming a supervisor before departing to London. During my time at Ruddicks I was involved with a variety of SME's as well as some or Tasmania's largest privately owned organisations. Whilst specialising in Tax compliance, I also completed business valuations, restructures and company set up. Working across many different types of business I prided myself on being able to adapt and learn about new industries. My approach was to have attention to detail whilst also being able to dissect complicated tax law in an easy to understand way to clients - always maintaining a commercial view of the issues they face.I also lead our graduate recruitment through the university and CA achiever program. As part of this I oversaw the work of the team prior to partner final review.
