Where are the women?

Accountants Daily Podcast Network

On this episode of AD Insider, host Imogen Wilson is joined by Hall Chadwick partner Kathleen Vouris and Crouch Amirbeaggi managing partner Shabnam Amirbeaggi to chat all things insolvency and a lack of female representation. In Australia, women make up only 10 per cent of insolvency practitioners, revealing a huge gap that yearns to be filled. Amirbeaggi, the first registered female liquidator in the country, shares her journey from the beginning to the present and how she has continued to enjoy the highs and lows of the industry. Vouris, working alongside her father who has been in the insolvency game for 50 years, reflects on how her career has shaped her perspectives and how she has always felt supported by those around her. Amirbeaggi and Vouris also share insight into how the industry brought them together to form a friendship and support system of their own.
