“Having worked for BHM for over a decade, I’ve had the pleasure to witness the company’s exponential growth and also experience my own individual growth. This comes as a result of being placed under the tutelage of consummate professionals and paired with focus driven colleagues. That environment has not only fostered tacit knowledge and intangible experiences, but through BHM’s desire for team and continual professional development, I’ve been able to further my studies, expand my knowledge base and develop my craft.”

I enjoy going to work every day knowing that the organisation I work for is concerned about my growth and development in the company. BHM has supported me through an Associates Degree in Business Administration, a Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting, and eventually a CPA. BHM understands that providing a truly great service to their clients requires having a well-trained, qualified team in all areas. Working for a company like BHM which offers so much support makes my job so much easier.
