New Tax Professionals: Progression Series 2021

Are you focused on your next career move? Are you looking for tips or a new perspective on how to navigate your career?

In this webinar series, we heard from successful tax professionals in a range of different tax roles, who each gave us a tour of their careers.

Each speaker talked about the path that led them to their current role and shared tips on how to take control of your career and move up the ladder, as well as advice on how to overcome challenges they faced throughout their careers.

A consistent theme from all our speakers was to take the opportunities that are available to you and make the most of them.
