What is SK working on?

Client Focus Groups

We held two client focus groups in June. We wanted unbiased critique and comments on our marketing and client documentation.

Both groups provided us with great feedback on how to improve our documentation. A notable suggestion was to create a document that explained how we do what we do. What an obvious and good idea!

One of the groups were younger people who are mainly linked to either the EY Foundation * or the Haberdashers’

Company ** . Navigating Covid 19 The entire team has been working remotely from home since March and thanks to technology, has meant it is business as usual. We have held multiple team socials including bingo, pub quizzes and a virtual hunt across London. Reception are still answering calls at the office and forwarding messages to the team. We are also still receiving all post. We want to return to the office on a gradual basis over the coming months. However whilst we can work from home, we will continue to do so.

Their input showed maturity ahead of their years. An impressive bunch who we hope go on to impress in their chosen careers.

This includes communication with our clients, sending and receiving documents / information and managing our own IT security. We are currently trialling different services and methods. Once we have new processes in place, we will let our clients know.
