Meet our hosts!
Hi I'm Chloe Heard, an Audit Semi-Senior and co-host.
Throughout my career at MHA, I have been given many opportunities to develop as well as be inspired by many people, including Liam, my co-host! Therefore, it only made sense that we created a platform where we could share the many stories and career journeys of our people and inspire others. A platform for open dialogue without censorship or fear of acknowledging both the successes and challenges.
As co-host of this show, it's a great privilege to meet and hear so many inspiring people across the MHA network. I hope you enjoy listening as much as we did recording it!
Hello, I'm Liam Hammond, Director and co-host.
In 2006, I began my career as a Trainee at MHA. In my journey to Director, I have been fortunate to have been guided by many inspirational leaders across the firm, and I now have the privilege of supporting our next generation of business leaders and accountants. Regardless of which level they are at, each person can inspire the next by bringing their own experiences and creative ideas to the table and fostering collaboration and a positive environment.
Our podcast shares inspiring real stories, as well as a chance to understand some of the challenges many of us face, even if we are not able to relate. Through this, we will be able to better understand one another, drive positive change, and create an environment that is inclusive and empowering for all.
