Meet Darcy
Darcy is a passionate, analytical and driven athlete and aspiring data assurance associate who is striving to represent Australia for long jump at an Olympic Games.

"I liked having the opportunity to connect with some of the senior managers, directors and partners throughout the program and hearing each of their unique career journeys was really insightful. It helped reassure me that there's rarely a set pathway in getting to a senior level within at a big 4 Firm."
