Checking accounts of clients and working on your own individual work from start to completion.

I moderately enjoy, however I think taking a gap year and then going into this job would have been better for me and others.

Lots of excel skills!

Lots of support! We have joining buddies and senior people to go to if we face any problems.

3/5
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
