Summary

I am an experienced professional with a degree in Accounting and Finance from the University of Sussex and over 5 years of expertise as an Experienced Audit Associate at EY Jersey. In my current role, I have successfully assisted and conducted external audits across various sectors, including Hospitality, Manufacturing, and Offshore Investment. This experience has equipped me with strong analytical, financial reporting, and leadership skills, allowing me to manage complex projects and deliver high-quality results under tight deadlines.

My role has also enhanced my time management and communication skills, as I engage with clients daily to ensure their needs are met effectively. I am fluent in English, French, Hindi, and Mauritian Creole, which enables me to connect with a diverse clientele and navigate multi-jurisdictional matters seamlessly.

I am now eager to transition into a legal career, driven by a passion for law and a desire to apply my financial expertise in a legal context. I believe that my background in finance and audit will provide a unique perspective within the Finance & Corporate team at Mourant, where I can contribute to high-profile work while continuing to grow both personally and professionally. I am excited about the opportunity to support experienced partners and fee-earners in a collaborative environment that values inclusivity and development.
