I love the opportunity my role presents to work with a talented and dedicated team and solve complex financial challenges. The dynamic nature of the asset and wealth management (AWM) sector means that no two days are the same, and I find great satisfaction in helping our clients achieve their goals. Additionally, the continuous learning and professional development opportunities at PwC keep me engaged and motivated.
As a manager in the capital markets and accounting advisory services team, I oversee a variety of projects aimed at assisting clients with their financial reporting and regulatory compliance needs. I am leading teams, managing client relationships and providing technical accounting advice. My specialisation in areas such as IFRS Accounting Standards, US GAAP and financial instruments allows me to help clients meet their reporting obligations and optimise their financial strategies. Additionally, I conduct declarations of solvency, client asset examinations and safeguarding assessments to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements and protect client assets.
Leaders of Tomorrow provides an opportunity to expand my professional network
One of the big challenges we face is the increasing regulatory scrutiny and evolving financial reporting standards in the AWM sector. This requires us to stay ahead of the curve and continuously update our knowledge and skills to provide the best advice to our clients.
Our response will centre on investing in advanced technologies and continuous training for our team. By leveraging data analytics and other innovative tools, we can provide more insightful and efficient solutions to our clients. Additionally, we are committed to fostering a culture of continuous learning to ensure our team remains at the forefront of industry developments.
The ACCA qualification has been invaluable in my career, providing me with a strong foundation in accounting principles and financial management. ACCA’s rigorous training and ethical standards have equipped me with the skills and knowledge necessary to navigate complex financial landscapes and deliver a high-quality service to our clients.
I volunteer with local community organisations, which allows me to give back
Being selected for the Leaders of Tomorrow programme is an opportunity to enhance my leadership skills and expand my professional network. The programme aligns with my career aspirations by providing access to mentorship, advanced training and exposure to industry leaders, all of which will help me grow both personally and professionally.
To get away from it all, I enjoy spending time outdoors, whether it’s hiking, cycling or simply exploring new places. I also volunteer with local community organisations, which allows me to give back and make a positive impact in my community.
The most important business lesson I have learned is the value of adaptability and continuous learning. The business environment is constantly changing, and being able to adapt and grow with these changes is crucial for long-term success. Embracing new challenges and seeking out opportunities for development have been key to my career progression.
