Significant events
- “This year, we reached the milestone of 10,000 members, a significant achievement that we should all be proud of.”
- “Our employee engagement survey showed that staff continue to enjoy working with us, with 90% of staff being fully engaged in their work. In recognition of this we are proud that we won the People Insight Outstanding Place to Work Award for the second year running.”
- “Launched in September 2024, this multi-channel marketing initiative aimed to raise awareness of tax as a career and promote ATT qualifications to a diverse audience.”
- “In December, we were also delighted to welcome two new members to the ATT Council, Tom Wallace and Connor Whelan.”
- “In October this year, we held the Joint ATT & CIOT Presidents' Reception and Thank You to Volunteers event at the Merchant Taylors' Hall. During the evening, it was my absolute honour to welcome Molly Eldridge as the 10,000th member of the ATT.”
- “On 01 January 2024, the new regulations were introduced. These have been reviewed thoroughly and reflect the move of case management to within ATT/CIOT Professional Standards.”
- “During 2024, Technical Officers represented the ATT at 11 in-person events for schools and colleges, with the aim of educating students in tax literacy, and encouraging a wide selection of young people to pursue a career in tax.”
- “During 2024 we continued to support staff through continued access to counselling and GP services, as well as access to a wide range of well-being online resources and seminars.”
- “In 2024, the ATT worked with the Trailblazer Employer Group to develop a new Level 4 Apprenticeship in Taxation.”
- “This year saw our longstanding Director of Education, Rosalind Baxter, step down from the role. The ATT welcomed Vicky Purtill as our new Director of Education.”
- “In October, the committee welcomed a speaker from Grant Thornton to share the firm's experience of social mobility programmes, including its Social Mobility Taskforce Advisory Board, and the RISE initiative for students aged 14 to 16.”
- “In November, representatives from HMRC's Equalities and Extra Support for Customers Team attended the committee to provide insights and updates on HMRC's EDI activity.”
- “On 31 October, we launched the ATT's mentoring programme. The ATT Mentor Match is designed to support personal and professional growth through meaningful connections.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
