Sam: Having trained at Francis Clark and worked my way up through the ACA, up to manager, I stayed at the firm because I love the team and I feel constantly challenged.
Tamara: I get to work on a huge variety of clients, both from large international groups to small, family owned businesses. The knowledge and experience that you get from having that huge range of clients is amazing, and it always means that every day is a new challenge.
Sam: You get the opportunity to speak to CFOs, finance directors from a really early point in your career, which is great for development and progression. The support I get from my colleagues is fantastic. There’s regular one to ones where you receive up to date feedback, there’s appraisals, career conversations, to discuss progression.
Tamara: There’s a real collaborative feel. You never feel like you’re doing a job alone. I really feel like since joining Francis Clark, I’ve really found somewhere that really does make you feel valued and part of a large but seemingly small team.

“For me, the biggest surprise is how cohesive the firm feels as a whole. I've seen how closely teams work together across different departments and locations. Everyone is approachable and happy to help when they can."
Amber, Technical and training manager – audit
“I love seeing my team grow and develop. That’s something I treasure. I like to invest my time into people and team management and believe that is the central focus for any successful team."
Phil, Director – IT audit
"I like that we’re encouraged to champion the things we care about. For me, that’s accessibility – making our communications more inclusive for people with disabilities. There’s real momentum behind that work, and it has helped lead to shortlistings for two national marketing awards."
Laura, Head of brand, comms and digital marketing
"My job focuses on not-for-profit entities which felt aligned with my own personal values. PKF Francis Clark has a recognisable and trusted brand in the region and we act for over 200 charities. Hopefully, my skills and experience help them to run efficiently and effectively."
