Last month, Karmelle’s brilliant Accounts Assistant, Claire, announced that she was moving to Singapore. The prospect of recruiting for her replacement was daunting – but we needn’t have worried! When she heard about the vacancy, Claire’s predecessor, Vicki Hussain, jumped at the chance to rejoin team Karmelle. A chartered accountant and mum-of-two, she’ll be managing payroll, processing invoices, ordering materials, arranging deliveries and liaising with customers and suppliers…
Vicki, Karmelle’s new accounts assistant
Welcome back, Vicki! We’re delighted to have you. When did you first join the Karmelle team?
I first joined the Karmelle team in 2013. Back then, my role involved looking after the accounting function at the business – and we were a team of around ten!
And what brought you back to Karmelle?
I was extremely happy to hear about the opening at Karmelle again and jumped at the opportunity. As far as employers go, I can genuinely say Brian and Peter are the best I have come across, and it feels great to be a part of the team again. The staff at Karmelle are also really friendly, and this adds to the positive environment anyone would want in a workplace.
Karmelle has grown considerably since you first joined the team in 2013. What will your role involve now?
Since leaving Karmelle, I have completed my ACCA, and am now a qualified chartered accountant. I am returning as Accounts Assistant, but feel I am able to offer more to the department.
Tell us a bit more about yourself! What do you like to do in your spare time?
In my free time, I enjoy yoga, martial arts and jogging. My children are a big part of my world, and most of all I enjoy spending quality time with them!
