Saskia Harrison

I am passionate about providing value from the audit and have supported clients from start-ups all the way to FTSE-100 businesses. I have seen and helped companies grow and transition, and have worked on a combination of IFRS and FRS102 clients. I am skilled in the planning and delivery of engagements, and enjoy being heavily involved in the project management of an audit, to ensure it is effectively delivered. I not only ensure we provide a strong audit service, but also provide feedback on improvements and suggestions on where your company could benefit based on my market knowledge.

I am an Audit Director and Responsible Individual at Gerald Edelman. This means I will be the one signing the financial statements following on from the audit, and will be a key point of contact in communication in delivering our audit services.

If you’re interested…

I am ACA qualified, and have been working in audit for over 10 years, including two years in industry at Warner Media. I have also worked in top 10 firms for eight years, working on start-ups all the way to FTSE-100 businesses across a broad range of industries.

What is the most exciting thing on your bucket list?

To visit Japan – we are booked to go next year and I am already creating a detailed schedule to ensure we tick off everything we want to do and see whilst we’re there!

If you could have dinner with anyone, who would it be?

I would have loved to have met Frank Sinatra – so assuming I could go back in time for this dinner, it would be with him, in a fancy restaurant booth in Vegas.

If you could have any superpower, what would it be?

The power to heal. Whether it be physical or mental injuries or illnesses, I wish I had the power to relieve people of them.

Who inspires you?

My parents – they made sacrifices for my sister and I growing up, and because of those decisions I am in a great position in life and I try to never take that for granted. It also motivates me to make the most of the opportunities I get given.
