Monique Jeffries is an agri-accountant, working for McLaren Hunt in Warrnambool. She always had an aspiration to be an accountant, growing up in New Zealand, it was her fathers accountant who was a real inspiration. But It was whilst working on her family farm that Monique took a role with open country, a milk processor in New Zealand, before making the big move to Australia to work at UDC as a field officer. Monique has a real passion for helping farmers be equipped with the best knowledge and team around them, to make the best decisions for their businesses and therefore has recently made the move back to accounting with McLaren Hunt.

In this week's episode of the podcast we discuss the many differences between New Zealand and Australia, and the current dairy landscape, as well as Monique's personal experiences that are giving her an advantage within her current accounting role.
