We are delighted to welcome Danielle Grimshaw to the Wain Estates team as our in-house Management Accountant.
With more than a decade of experience we know she will be a huge asset to the company as we continue to expand.
Danielle, 27, who got a Saturday job book-keeping while still at school, is a passionate advocate for apprenticeships and work-based learning.
She said: “I always knew I wanted to be an accountant and discovered you could take your AAT qualifications while working so wrote to all the local firms in my area giving them information about an AAT apprenticeship scheme and asking if they would take me on.”
“Ella Associates gave me the opportunity and I qualified with them. I passionately believe that, for many people, learning on the job is the best way and not only trains you for the specific role but also for the world of work.”
She said: “I made the jump from practice into industry in 2020 and really enjoyed the fully hands on role.
“The opportunity to join Wain Estates was too good to miss. It is privately owned with a great ethos and it is a really supportive and inclusive place to work.”
Speaking about Danielle’s appointment, Wain Estates’ finance director Mark Booth said: “We are delighted to have Danielle join the team as the scale and momentum of work across the business continues to grow.
“Her skill and enthusiasm will help support this growth.”
