My role consisted of preparing and processing payrolls for businesses.
I learnt a lot surrounding income tax, national insurance, pensions and other areas of payroll. I also developed the skills of working within a short timeframe and began to grow and start processing more complex payrolls.
Very much so, the year I had with Larking Gowen has really set my career up and would recommend it to anyone doing a degree and looking to get into the industry.
It was very well organised with regular check-ups with both my manager and someone from the Uni.
I received a lot of support from my employer and would say there's nowhere better I could have been. I feel very lucky to have found this place.
The Uni held regular meetings and seminars regarding these placement years.
The knowledge I learnt in my qualification was then further enhanced when I was working
This is a very sociable place to work. There's opportunities to attend all kinds of networking events as well as teams going out for all sorts of socials
Yes
It really is such a great place to work with incredible employee benefits. The support you get around you here is fantastic and I can't speak highly enough. Everyone who works here is so lovely.
Show enthusiasm and that you really want to be here and you will be rewarded.
