      University representative

      This was a very diverse role, I had to stimulate interest in the charity hitch to Morocco or Croatia among students, retain this interest over the course of six months and ensure they were all ready to complete the hitch. I conducted information evenings, organised fundraising events and used my experience of the hitch, which I had completed the year before, to assist the participants.

      I was a Lead Analyst on an Anti-Money Laundering model optimisation project at HSBC. I started on this project as a graduate consultant working as an analyst but proved myself both as an analyst and lead analyst. In 2018 I delivered the first two successful model optimisation projects globally for HSBC, managing a team of 5 analysts. In this role I managed the workload of my team whilst also engaging with stakeholders who were located globally. I supported the data analysis conducted by my team and presented the results of this analysis to both technical and non-technical audiences using dashboards and Microsoft office tools. Show less

      After 4 years as a consultant at Sopra Steria I decided to pursue a new challenge and fulfil a dream of mine, to live and work in Spain. My role as an auxiliar was to assist with the English language in classrooms. I worked in a primary and high school providing insight into the English language and also the British culture. I took the role to challenge myself with learning a new language and to enjoy life in a foreign culture.

      I began volunteering at SOFEA in March 2020 having returned to the UK due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As the site grew and the demands increased, I was taken as a permanent member of staff initially as the warehouse manager. As Deputy Director, my role was to ensure the day to day running of the site was smooth while also enhancing and expanding our support to the young people and speaking to potential partners and funders. I was line manager for four of the warehouse team and responsible for a team of fifteen. Show less
