What the team think of Carpenter Box

“The people I work with are amazingly supportive and have always listened if I have had issues. Everything I have been taught is because someone higher up has taken the time out their day to teach me, no matter how busy they are.”
Audit Senior
“I am surrounded by a fantastic team who constantly encourage and support me to better myself. I feel like I’ve found more than just a new job but in fact a new career and look forward to my future at Carpenter Box.”
Tax Senior
“After finishing work experience at Carpenter Box in 2008, I was offered a job as a trainee. I then became AAT qualified in 2012, ACCA qualified in 2015 and received my CTA qualification in 2017. The firm has been great at supporting me through my qualifications both financially and recognising the additional support I may need due to living so far away. One of the things I like most about working at Carpenter Box are the people I work closely with and they have always supported me in the areas that I want to pursue.”
Senior Tax Manager

Building a brighter future
