What do you love most about what you do?

There’s a lot of things I love about my job. I love being able to develop my skills everyday and I think having targets to meet is a great way to stay focused.

I’m constantly learning and speaking to different people which gives me great job satisfaction!

What motivates you at work?

On a personal level, I’m motivated by saving up for a new car and I know that working hard will help me achieve this soon.

Tell us about your career path so far

Before beginning my career in recruitment, I studied Psychology, Sociology and English at Hutton Sixth Form.

Upon leaving college, I worked at Starbucks and I loved helping the public and developing my soft skills.

After leaving Starbucks, I was keen to pursue a career as an Estate Agent; however, when I saw the vacancy at Spencer Clarke Group, I knew it would give me the opportunity to develop my skills further.

I’m so happy I applied for the role in compliance and I haven’t looked back since!

How would your colleagues describe you?

I hope they would describe me as outgoing, friendly and a good laugh!

Where are we most likely to find you outside of work?

I’m really fortunate to have many good friends who I spend most of my spare time with. I like to have a social event to look forward to each weekend - we’re never short of plans!

I also love spending time with my Labrador, Ted. He’s the best!

Tell us something we’d never guess about you!

I’ve broken the same arm four times. It once happened on Christmas Eve after I slipped on a coke bottle. Needless to say, A&E was not where I wanted to spend Christmas Eve!

What’s next for you at Spencer Clarke Group?

I love being a member of the compliance team and in the future I hope to take on more responsibilities within this department as the company continues to grow.

I’m keen to help more of our consultants with their compliance, to continue developing my skills and learning more about the recruitment industry as a whole.
