Under the staff spotlight this month we have one of our Senior Accountants (and theatrical promoter of biscuits), Emily!
Senior Accountant
Accounts, VAT returns, corporation tax returns. Advising clients on their responsibilities and working with them to ensure they meet their filing deadlines.
Busy! I get a lot of emails, so I try and do those first thing, then I have consultation calls with new clients which I quite enjoy. I can talk for Britain and it really eases the new clients in. Then I get on with my accounts work.
During this time, everyone is struggling. I just try and reassure the clients that I’m here and I care, and I’ll do whatever I can to help.
We get a lot of new business sign ups. It’s daunting starting a new business, so we use the initial consultation call to get to know the client and reassure them. We’ll talk through their responsibilities and deadlines, and just let them know that I’m here to work with and support them.
My Dad has run a small business for many years, so when I ended up working in accounts and saw he was struggling with his duties to HMRC, I stepped in. Based on this, I keep my advice to clients down to earth and comprehensive. I really do have a passion to help small businesses.
The clients are my favourite part of my job. Everyone thinks being an accountant is boring, but I meet so many interesting and diverse businesses.
Colleagues! Again, interesting and diverse, and having that knowledge bank is amazing, I can’t wait to get back to the office to pick all their brains.
Personability. I can chat away to clients and make them feel at ease.
Eastham Woods, and The Mimosa Tea Garden where they have the best ice cream, I’m looking forward to going back there soon.
As a mum I know everyone says their kids and I’m certainly proud of my 2 boys but outside of them, I suppose moving down to the Wirral and driving a van. It was terrifying, but I did it with 2 toddlers and a cat.
Always kind and helpful, and very blunt.
Stephen King ‘If It Bleeds’. I’m dyslexic, so reading is always a challenge but I’ve loved his books since I was a teenager and I enjoy the escape of reading.
My mum, she’s so cool. I make it my life work to try and annoy her for sport and it makes her laugh, but she remains unshakable. She is the kindest and sweetest person I know.
A question I ask everyday, “what can I do today to be kind to myself and others?” There’s no answer other than just dispense kindness where you encounter the need.
