Sally began her career at a local Leicester firm of accountants in 2002 as a trainee. She then took 18 months out to travel around Australia and New Zealand before returning in 2005 to join MHA. Over the past 19 years, she has progressed from a trainee to, in 2024, being promoted to Director. Sally works with her client portfolio to provide audit services in the not-for-profit and corporate sectors. She has extensive experience in conducting audits for various not-for-profit organisations, including Academies, Multi-Academy Trusts, Colleges, Charities, subsidiaries of overseas parent companies, and owner-managed businesses across a wide range of sectors.
Sally holds the FCCA qualification and a BA (Hons) in Financial Studies.
She is the Chair of the Wellbeing Committee and a trained Mental Health First Aider. Sally leads the organisation of firm-wide events for wellbeing, supported by a team of wellbeing representatives in each office, ensuring that all staff are aware of the support available and can participate in events and awareness days.
Sally has chosen to work at MHA and has remained there for 19 years because she values the firm's culture, which combines the atmosphere of a local firm with strong working relationships among colleagues. She appreciates the supportive team environment, as well as access to specialists across the firm, larger clients, and opportunities to take on more challenging and complex work.
As a mother of two, Sally balances work and family life. MHA's flexible working hours and hybrid working arrangements have enabled her to attend important family events like Christmas pantomimes and sports days, while still maintaining a high standard in her professional role.
In addition to her work, Sally is an Explorer Scout Leader, working with young people aged 14 to 17 years. She enjoys organising activities and camps, dedicating two hours each week to volunteering, along with additional time on weekends for camps.
Sally also enjoys yoga and travelling.
