When did you join us and what were the reasons you chose Crowe?

I joined Crowe as part of the school leaver apprenticeship programme in September 2015. I had decided that I wanted to be an accountant during Sixth Form and therefore it made sense to join a school leaver programme. I decided to join Crowe as I had received positive feedback from a family member who worked at Crowe and after doing some research, I could see that I would be able to gain a wealth of experience across multiple industries, while also gaining a recognised qualification.

What do you remember most about your time at Crowe? Is there anything you miss?

I was at Crowe for six and half years from 2015 to 2022. I really enjoyed my time there and felt that I developed both professionally and personally. I remember working in many different teams with lots of different personalities who were all supportive of each other.

I miss the people at Crowe who I built strong relationships with, some of which I have been successful at keeping in touch with others not so much, which I hope to rectify! I also miss the opportunity to travel – it was nice to travel to different locations in the UK, which was regular part of working in the audit team.

How have you stayed connected with Crowe?

I have stayed connected with Crowe by keeping in touch with the people I worked with. I also attended the recent Alumni event in Birmingham - it was great to see those I haven’t managed to keep in touch with and catch up. I also still have a family connection to Crowe as two of my relatives still work there.

Tell us about your career journey since you left Crowe and what are your doing at the moment/ what your focus is at the moment?

I left Crowe to join Veolia as a Financial Accountant predominantly focusing on financial accounting, group reporting and audit. Since then, I have recently been promoted to Finance Manager and my role now also involves looking after an element of management accounts, business partnering, budgeting and forecasting.

What would you say are the benefits of keeping the connection with Crowe?

I really value keeping in touch with Crowe – it’s great to have a network of former colleagues and friends who I can reach out to. Also connecting to them and Crowe on LinkedIn gives me access to regular insights, updates and current changes across various industries, which I find really useful.

The Alumni events Crowe organises are a great way to keep in touch and network with former colleagues and also to meet people who are new to the firm. I am looking forward to the next one!
