Meet Natalie – from school leaver to Head of Business solutions
Natalie joined PKF in 2007 after receiving her A-level results. After deciding that she didn’t want to go to university, Natalie built a career in accountancy and audit: “The training contract was really attractive, it meant I could work and start earning, and learn on the job with no student debt.”
Having originally joined PKF in the audit team, Natalie worked her way through the AAT and ACCA exams, until she qualified in 2012 and became an Assistant Manager. She went on to progress to Manager and Senior Manager before deciding that she needed a change.
In 2017, Natalie moved to our fast-growing Business solutions team and was promoted to Director in 2020. Shortly after her promotion, Natalie became Head of Business solutions, something she is extremely proud of.
“I would highly recommend an apprenticeship or trainee programme with PKF as you get excellent training support, and are surrounded by lots of people who you will build great relationships with. PKF is a growing firm, and so every day brings exciting new challenges to keep developing you as an individual.”
