Team Profile
Our team members are bright, ambitious and eager to learn. Our staff have excellent communication skills and are interested in being involved in management of the practice and are prepared to assume responsibility. As well as having a good work ethic, our team members also have a sense of fun and this contributes to our outstanding work environment.

Human Resource Management
We recognise that the "product" sold by our business is technical expertise, and as such, our employees are our most valuable asset. As a consequence human resource management assumes a high profile in the management of the practice and we seek to attract and retain the highest calibre human resource assets possible.

In view of this:

• It is a priority for management to provide appropriate career development and opportunities to staff at all levels.
• All staff participate in the annual practice development conference. The conference is usually held away from the office over 3-4 days.
• A profit sharing arrangement is in place. This "strategy" seeks to reward team members for above average practice performance.
• Client-staff relationship is encouraged at all levels.
• The development of staff networks is encouraged.
• Continuous education support is provided and encouraged.
• Job specifications are in place for all team members.
• Regular appraisals of performance against position specification are conducted. As part of this process employees are encouraged to discuss their expectations of their employment and to provide feedback on all aspects of their career.
• A standard form employment contract is in place for all team members.
• An Harassment Policy and an E-mail and Internet Policy is in place and all staff have signed copies of the policies acknowledging their awareness and understanding of the policies.

Training provided

• Professional taxation updates are conducted at our premises by Webb Martin monthly.
