Emily Smith

After finishing my A-Levels, I joined David Allen to complete a specialised and advanced administration apprenticeship in the Tax department in 2018.  I worked within the tax team for almost eighteen months whilst completing my qualification and I was given the opportunity to help with admin tasks in the financial services team whilst they were busy. I enjoyed the role so much that I expressed an interest in staying there and I have now been offered a role to train to become a paraplanner.

I love working in the financial services team as there is so much variety within the role and we come across some interesting cases. My colleagues are driven and ambitious which really motivates me to be the best I can be.  Working in a fun and supportive team really makes you feel part of something. There is an amazing team spirit at David Allen and a great support system.
