Staff testimonials

“I started with Carey Group nearly 3 years ago straight out of James Cook University. One of the aspects that attracted me to Carey Group was the multiple office locations and the option to relocate with the firm. I relocated from Townsville to the Tablelands. Carey Group supported this move by ensuring I am still connected across the offices and can take advantage of any opportunities. It was a fairly smooth transition and now I get to work with other team cohorts across the offices which has helped with developing both my social and professional skills.”

Gabrielle Winspear

“I approached Carey Group to complete my Work Integrated Learning (WIL) program because of their strong and appealing family values. Upon starting my WIL, I felt very welcomed and supported by all team members and I was thrilled at the opportunity when offered a Graduate Accountant position.”

Georgia Gatti

“When Carey Group accepted my Work Integrated Learning (WIL) applications the emotions were ecstatic as after my interview, I had hopes to work for their firm. The WIL program creates an opportunity for impactful and effective ways to put my classroom learning into practice and enhance the objectives and skills that I had my manager set. Upon completing the WIL program, I was offered a Graduate Accountant position and I could not be happier with my experience at Carey Group.”

Emma Reichhold

I joined Carey Group 10 months ago as a Financial Planning Intern, while undertaking my final years of study. What attracted me to Carey Croup was their connection to the region alongside the flexibility to continue study while gaining industry experience. Throughout my time I have gained deeper experience in Investment Strategies, Superannuation, Insurance and Self-Managed Super Funds. While helping clients reach their financial goals and smoothing the transition to retirement.
