Sarah Atkinson

I always wanted to work in accountancy, and began my journey by studying at university in 2006.

As part of my degree, I began working in a one-partner firm and continued there until I gained the ACCA qualification. Starting my career at an independent firm meant I had a hands-on role from day one, working directly with the Managing Partner. This allowed me to gain a wealth of valuable knowledge and experience across a range of areas including statutory accounts and taxation.

I joined a bigger firm in 2006, which allowed me to continue to develop my skills and work with larger clients across accounts, tax and audit and business support. During this time, I have developed strong working relationships with clients which helps me to continue to provide the best possible service at DJH.

• What makes DJH great is…

  The team-we all support each other to make sure we provide the best possible service for our clients.

• My most trusted piece of advice in business is…

  Don’t be afraid to ask questions – people are always happy to help and support you and your business.

• On a Saturday morning you’ll usually find me…
