Whilst completing my Accountancy degree at Northumbria University I decided on taking a year out and completing a placement year. Having joined the Townends Pontefract office in June as a placement student it has given me a great chance to put the theory I’ve learnt into practice.
Within my first 3 months at Townends I have been given the opportunity to experience a variety of work such as accounts preparation for sole traders and limited companies alongside preparing CT600 tax returns.
No two days are the same at Townends, one day you could be completing a tax return whilst on another you could be playing for Townends cricket team. I enjoy working in a friendly and supportive environment with colleagues who are always happy to share their knowledge.
