Top Marks for Hayley

Congratulations to our very own trainee accountant Hayley Jones as she recorded the joint-highest global score for her latest exam.

Hayley beat competition from more than 29,000 entrants from the UK and across the world to achieve the top score for the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) audit and assurance paper. Her high score of 88% was matched by just one other - a female trainee from United Arab Emirates.

Hayley age 23, who has worked for Tiffin Green since January 2010, studied maths and physics, with astrophysics at King's College London before starting her career in accountancy. Reflecting on her achievement she said "couldn’t believe it at first, but it has given me a bit more confidence in my abilities and has spurred me on to continue to work hard." In recognition of her success Hayley has received a certificate and a cheque for £200 from the ACCA.

Looking forward, Hayley is now preparing for her next set of professional exams in June.
