Alexander's path to becoming an accountant I Aspreys Accountants

We’re delighted to welcome Alexander Gangloff to Aspreys Accountants as our new Associate, joining us through our apprenticeship programme.

Great accountants are developed through real experience, mentorship, and the opportunity to learn on the job. That’s why our apprenticeship scheme is such an important part of how we grow our team and invest in the next generation of accountancy talent.

A natural fit for numbers

Alexander’s path into accountancy started early. Having grown up with a natural affinity for numbers, it quickly became the subject he excelled in and kept being drawn back to throughout school and college. Helped along the way by maths teachers who recognised his potential and encouraged him to make the most of it.

“When it came time to choose a career after college, accountancy was a topic that had come up often with teachers and peers. The more I looked into it, the more it drew me in.” — Alexander Gangloff, Associate

Why Alexander chose the apprenticeship route

For Alexander, the decision to pursue an apprenticeship came down to understanding how he learns best.

“I’ve always learned best when there’s a practical element, applying what I’m taught to real situations helps the learning stick, and lets me shape it to the way I think and work. The AAT qualification is incredibly well respected in the industry, and the apprenticeship route lets me show I can pair on-the-job training with real, practical application.” — Alexander Gangloff, Associate

Alexander is currently AAT Level 3 qualified, with plans to continue building on this as his career progresses.

Aspreys investing in the next generation of accountants

At Aspreys, apprenticeships are a core part of how we build our team for the long term.

“Alexander’s natural aptitude for numbers, combined with his drive to apply what he learns in real client work, makes him a great fit for our apprenticeship programme. We’re excited to help him build his career with us.” — Daniel Medlen, Director
