1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

I help clients implement indirect tax technologies that will help them determine the correct VAT rate to be charged to their clients and ensure businesses are charging them the correct level of tax too.

2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

I've developed my excel skills but also learnt Alteryx and O Series which aid the tech solution

5. How much support do you receive from your employer?

A LOT! I think they put your well being before anything else and will do what they can to support you throughout the whole process.

10/10

6. How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

I don't think the training provider is that supportive. The tutors are great at teaching but the support available isn't the best.

6/10

7. How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

I think as I work in tax the ta exams are highly relevant and helpful. Other exams such as audit perhaps not so much
