Focussed on data, systems and information in public sector, speaking at numerous events. Lots of interviewing experience, and trained as a workplace coach, supporting early career staff. Love F1 too - who wouldn't with all those statistics! Lots of experience in Estates / Built environment, so really understand real life as trades staff too.

Event description
Inspire our students
In this session, business leaders will share insights, lessons and tips to motivate and inspire your students to make informed decisions about their future.
We want our students to be the most employable students in Corby, part of that is allowing them to engage with successful business people who can explain the risks and opportunities that they took to reach the point they are now at. Our year 11 students are preparing for GCSE's and some meaningful motivqtion would be great.
Speakers will ‘tell a story’ about their career journey:
• Subjects they studied and how these are relevant now
• What inspired them to choose their career path
• Their failures, as well as successes
• What their company does and why this is important
• What they enjoy most about their career
• Skills currently relevant in the jobs they are doing now.
