What do you like about your job and the company?
I enjoy the challenges that being recruitment lead brings. I have a small team of recruiters, who deal with all our permanent recruitment for CDIO Borders & Trade. Processes change quite quickly and over the last few months there have been organisation changes as well, so feel that I am always learning and updating my knowledge.
Greatest achievements
Before COVID my team were nominated for a HMRC peoples award, where we were invited to a ceremony in London. It was lovely for the team to be recognised for all the hard work that they do.

Find a mentor you are comfortable with. Be prepared to take honest constructive feedback. Create a support network...it's easier than you think.

Top Insider Advice
It can be a very daunting experience starting work for a new employer, no matter what your age or experience. On my first day in the office (having never worked in an office before) I dressed in full suit and tie, only to find my colleagues were in smart casual dress. This was 33 years ago and now a simple question could be asked on a platform such as this. Then there are the ways things can sometimes be explained incorrectly, it's not anyone's fault. Generally no one is specifically trained in dealing with the diverse nature that working/office life can bring. Rest assured HMRC is a great place to work and One of HMRC's Values is that we are innovative, We are committed to continuous improvement and to developing ourselves. Another is that we are professional, We partner with others and collaborate within and across teams to achieve great results.
