Jumping in at the deep end, Magda quickly became an integral part of the team, helping us navigate the intense run-up to the Self Assessment deadline. With hundreds of tax returns to process, November to January is always a high-pressure period for us, but Magda took it all in her stride. In just her first few months, she played a key role in supporting the team as they successfully submitted over 600 tax returns (from Nov to Jan!) on time. Her expertise, efficiency, and calm approach made an immediate impact, and we’re so pleased to have her on board.

We asked Magda how she has found her time here so far, and she had nothing but positive things to say; "It’s been great—the people are lovely, and the atmosphere is so calm and everyone works so well together," she told us. Despite joining at the busiest time of the year, Magda says the experience was nothing but positive: "It is very busy, but I was happy to be able to contribute to the tax compliance team; everyone was so supportive and the teamwork ethos here is excellent. Yes, the workload was quite high before the January deadline, but the pressure wasn’t forced upon you, so it was still a really nice environment to work in." One of the standout moments in Magda’s first few months was receiving her first client feedback email. “It was just lovely—their comments really made my day," she shared.

When it comes to her passion for tax, Magda loves the variety it brings - "No day is the same, and I love helping clients with their tax affairs from all kinds of backgrounds," she explained. If she had to sum up the team in just three words, Magda chose: professional, supportive, and skilled; a reflection of the strong, collaborative environment we pride ourselves on. 

Outside of work, Magda leads an active lifestyle, enjoying running, cycling, and hiking in the Lakes with her daughter, Nadia. A fun fact many might not know? She’s also a qualified yoga instructor and practices daily! “Yoga clears my head, especially when going through my studies," she told us.

Though she’s been with us for a few months now, we wanted to take a moment to officially introduce and celebrate Magda’s contribution—so if you haven’t met her yet, be sure to say hello! - Welcome to the team, Magda!
