Our placement student is Conor Napier, Ulster University. Sophie Stephenson, Sophie Devlin and Jack Gillespie also join us to complete their Accounting Technicians Ireland course through Belfast Met.
Our group of trainees began their careers at Sumer NI with an intensive but enjoyable ‘Induction Week’ off site at the newly opened Custom House. Now back in the office, the work begins.
New Trainee, Cliona Meighan commented,
“The Induction week was a great way to ease us all into the training contract. Overall, it was a really great week of learning and building relationships with those I’ll be working alongside over the next 3.5 years.”
