Telford-based accountancy firm Turas Accountants has appointed a new apprentice to its team.
William Morgans-Sharples, 16, has joined the company straight from Idsall School in Shifnal as part of an accountancy apprenticeship.
Over the next 12 months he will be studying for the Association of Accounting Technicians level 2 qualification and then hopes to go on to study for further qualifications.
Will said that he was keen to move into an apprenticeship straight from school to gain hands on experience and to start earning a living.
Outside of the office he is a keen football fan and regularly joins his father in the stands to watch Wolverhampton Wanderers where they are both season ticket holders.
Will, who lives in Shifnal, said: “I’ve always been interested in finances so to be able to pursue accountancy within a company as part of an apprenticeship was the obvious choice.”
Turas director Helen Columb said Will had already settled in to the Turas team.
“As a company we are always delighted to find a young person who is focused on a career in accountancy. Our training programme is really important to us and we are looking forward to supporting Will on his career path,” she said.
