Tell us about your career path so far.
I was at Blackpool Sixth Form for 2 years and completed 3 A Levels in Maths, Business and Economics. Whilst studying, I had a part time job working as a waitress where I was able to develop my soft skills.
After Sixth Form, all of my friends decided to go to University but I declined the offers I received as I knew I wanted to start my career early.
Although it may have been a risky decision, I think Spencer Clarke Group is the perfect company to help me succeed in my career.
How would your colleagues describe you?
My colleagues would describe me as bubbly, witty and kind!
Where are we most likely to find you outside of work?
Outside of work you are most likely to find me in the pub with my friends and boyfriend.
I also love to go to Manchester because there is a good atmosphere for shopping!
Tell us something we’d never guess about you!
I used to do a lot of swimming and I was even trained by an Olympic gold medalist!
What’s next for you at Spencer Clarke Group?
I am going to focus on working towards hitting my monthly targets and as I progress, I would like to take on more responsibilities within the company.
One day I might even manage my own team which would be amazing!
