Hear from Harveer - ACA Trainee Accountant

I joined Botham Accounting in September 2023 after finishing my degree at the University of Sheffield.  I enrolled into the Level 7 ACA Chartered Accounting Apprenticeship Scheme, and I began my learning alongside my work, studying for exams such as Law, Accounting and Assurance.  These modules have given me new transferrable skills in areas that are directly relate to a lot of the tasks I complete on the job.  Speaking to other colleagues at Botham who are also on this apprenticeship has given me valuable insights, as they provide guidance anytime I have concerns.

The collaborative approach towards training through methods such as shadowing colleagues has enabled me to extend the knowledge I had previously acquired in education and apply it within the workplace. It has been really easy for me to settle in, as everyone on my team is always willing to listen to any concerns I have and are able to answer any queries.  This has helped me to become more confident in tackling tasks and has helped me to improve my performance.

As a member of the Accounts Team, my role so far has consisted of preparing statutory year-end accounts for a range of clients.  I have been introduced to many new concepts, such as opening balance testing, performing journal Current adjustments, and financial statement analysis for our clients.  I have learned that not one client of the firm is the same as another, meaning every day in the office is different.

The variety of working here is also key for my personal career development. I have been able to get a taste of working in Audit as well as completing some bookkeeping.  This enables me to always stay engaged and interested, and I look forward to taking on new tasks and working with many more clients in the future.
