“I joined the Metcalf & Sahd team in 2014 after matriculating.

One of my biggest passions in life is studying, Metcalf, Sahd gave me the opportunity to study where I would not have been able to otherwise. Within my first year at the Firm I started my SAICA approved undergraduate degree and signed a 5 year SAICA training contract.

I have excelled over the past 4 years both academically and professionally with the support of the Firm and my colleagues. I believe Metcalf & Sahd gives you a training experience unlike any other because the training is very broad and we are trained to be all-rounders within the profession.”
