Greatest achievements

I’m proud to have led the Private Office through a period of uncertainty during the transition between Deputy Directors—a time that required resilience, clarity, and steady leadership. Still, my greatest achievement always feels just around the corner, as HMRC continues to offer exciting development opportunities. Most recently, I’ve been selected for the Achieving Your Potential pilot for future leaders and the prestigious Management Development Program. I’ve also been chosen to represent HMRC as an ambassador—an honour that reflects my continued commitment and future potential within the organisation.

Top Insider Advice

Make a difference in whatever you do. The roles in your career may change frequently or be quite stable. You may stick to one profession, end up working in a few or work in one you would never have expected to work in. Your best profession may not yet even exist! But whatever you do - make a positive difference. That difference can be to your customers, the public, the service you provide or the people you work with. It will be different in the roles you do - but make sure you change things for the better.

Try different areas. Don't stick to one

I studied a completely different degree, and the work I did before the Tax Specialist Programme in finance was completely different to what I do now. But when I read the listing for the Tax Specialist Programme I felt that I had the right sort of skillset to work in tax, and can happily say that I have nurtured and grown this skillset in my time on the Tax Specialist Programme. We often feel like because we've done one thing we need to stick with that one thing, but it's important to believe in your own skills and to embrace trying new things.
