I joined Baker Tilly Staples Rodway Wellington at the beginning of 2024 and despite still being part-way through my studies, they were very accommodating and helped me to balance work and study.

There are many perks to working in the smallest Baker Tilly office. Perhaps what I appreciate the most is the genuine sense of community where everyone, regardless of service line, knows each other and gets along. I feel comfortable working closely with more senior, CA-qualified members of the team and this has helped to accelerate my learning and development. As soon as grads join the company, we’re given the opportunity to be involved in valued work and figure things out without feeling time pressured or micro-managed. We’re supported through the whole process, from emailing the client for information to compiling GST returns and financial statements. 

The firm has been very supportive of my professional ambitions, and I often see people undertaking extra tax courses as well as regular BAS trainings. I am often asked what kind of work I enjoy doing, or want to do, and the firm makes efforts to expose me to work I find enjoyable and interesting. At Baker Tilly you are not just a number but a valued member in the team and can make an immediate contribution and perform valued work.
