There was cause for celebration for Trainee Accountant Natasha Atkinson, who recently passed her AAT exams, the next step in her goal of becoming a Chartered Accountant.

Natasha, who works for Preston-based accountancy firm Rotherham Taylor, is an example of the firm’s long-standing track record of developing staff and bringing them through the ranks.

“Passing the AAT qualification is a big achievement in my professional career, and I am looking forward to the next chapter of working towards becoming a chartered accountant,” said Natasha.

“I am really appreciative of everyone at Rotherham Taylor who has provided me with support throughout the AAT qualification.”

Rebecca Bradshaw, Director at Rotherham Taylor, who also started off as a Trainee Accountant at the firm, praised Natasha’s achievements: “We are all immensely proud of Natasha for earning her AAT qualification. She’s put a lot of hard work into passing her exams and deserves this recognition.

“We are always keen to promote from within, and the best way to do that is to give our staff the best training possible. Natasha is the latest in a long line of trainees at Rotherham Taylor who have seen their careers progress positively.

“Natasha will now be working towards her ACA qualification, and we will continue to give her the support she needs as she continues her journey to becoming a Chartered Accountant.”
