Give an overview of the duties, functions and responsibilities of your job.

Completing tax returns such as self-assessments, VAT returns, and Corporation Tax. I also manage the week to week running of Pandle support including scheduling, chasing reported tickets, and helping users with any type of difficulties they may be having with Pandle.

What is a typical working day like for you?

I spend most of the morning answering emails and reviewing adjustments. Then I spend my lunch with a great group of colleagues and friends chatting, playing pool or on the PlayStation. In the afternoon I get the main crunch of my work done, then spend a short while reviewing my day with my trainer and planning for the next day.
