We’re pleased to welcome Hayden Burford, who recently joined Ducketts and his part of our Audit team alongside Jazz and Carrie.

Hayden is currently working towards his ACA qualification, balancing study with life in the fast-paced world of audit (and, importantly, keeping his spreadsheet game strong).

When he’s not working or studying, you’ll usually find Hayden on the golf course—he’s got a pretty low handicap, so there’s already a quiet buzz in the office about this year’s Ducketts Charity Golf Day… no pressure, Hayden!
We asked Hayden a few quick-fire questions to get to know him better:

One thing you’ve always wanted to do?
See the Northern Lights

Favourite food?
Salt and pepper chicken (a clear winner)

Favourite film?
Cars

Favourite holiday destination?
Costa Navarino, Greece

Hero?
My parents

Who would you swap places with for a day?
Kevin Durant

Passion outside of work?
Golf (and probably thinking about golf)

Superpower of choice?
The ability to freeze time

Childhood dream job?
Professional golfer

Last book you read?
The Nowhere Men

Something we don’t know about you?
A keen (but self-confessed average) chess player

A bit about Hayden’s journey
Before joining Ducketts, Hayden worked as an auditor, where he built strong foundations in accountancy that he now brings into his day-to-day role.

Why Ducketts?
Hayden joined us for the family feel and strong team spirit—something he’s already fitted into seamlessly.
