Keep Learning.
Financial Controller:
The younger you are, the more energy you have to learn, so don't be afraid to ask questions, and use your energy to go the extra mile. It'll pay off down the road, when you've obtained sufficient experience, skills, and job knowledge to compete and keep up with those more senior than you. Even then, look for opportunities to learn. In this industry, information coupled with critical thinking is the most powerful tool you can ever hope to wield.
