Sandy originally trained with Ernst & Young, where she qualified as a chartered accountant. She then had operational roles in industry, including a few years at the BBC. This was followed by a stint as a sole practitioner which helped her to appreciate the many challenges faced by smaller firms. After 14 years as a quality assurance reviewer she now works in the AML supervisory team at ICAEW. Although her role does encompass monitoring firms' compliance with the Money Laundering Regulations, a large chunk of it is dedicated to providing guidance to our member firms.
