Kirsten McGuire joined Ecovis Clark Jacobs 12 months ago.\u00a0 We sat down with her to find out what she liked about working at ECJ.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt feels like it was meant to be,\u201d is how Kirsten describes getting her job at ECJ. \u201cI was struggling to find a job when I moved to Australia with my family. \u00a0 This job description was actually sent to a friend, but was part-time and she was looking for a full-time role.\u00a0 By the time I looked into it, the search was closed.\u00a0 But fate stepped in, and they agreed to meet me and two weeks later, I was here.\u00a0 Ready to go.<\/p>\n
Throughout, I was struck by how seamless the process was, how inclusive and engaging everyone was.\u00a0 Every step of the way, I was reminded of\u00a0 how much value is placed on culture at ECJ.\u00a0 From the top down, everyone is invested in the culture, and in making it a great place to work.\u00a0 Everyone here is treated with respect, regarded as an individual and celebrated for the diversity they bring to the firm.\u00a0 Milestones are marked, occasions are celebrated and celebrated with sincerity.\u201d<\/p>\n
Hailing from South Africa and having spent 10 years working in Dubai, Kirsten wondered whether she would have much in common with her colleagues at ECJ.\u00a0 She needn\u2019t have worried. \u201cThe world is small and Australia is not as remote as perhaps I first imagined.\u00a0 The team at ECJ are diverse, worldly, well-travelled (well, before Covid) and curious.\u00a0 In this group there are so many shared experiences, shared curiosities and shared interests.\u00a0 For those of us without family in the next suburb, and facing the further uncertainty of when we might see off-shore family members, ECJ is our community, where we feel included and supported and inspired to do our best work.\u201d<\/p>\n
When not working from her kitchen table, Kirsten is a wife and mother, and like many, just trying to keep everyone on track in these uncertain times.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
