Before coming to Jenrick I worked for a well know shoe company. 

I knew selling shoes wasn’t for me. I am a very organised, social person and wanted to use my best skills to become an administrator. I have always wanted to work in this industry and was very lucky to be offered this great role by Julie.

I heard about Jenrick through word of mouth. I heard it was an excellent company to work for so after researching the company numerous times I knew it was a place I’d love to start my career in admin.

When researching Jenrick and seeing the amazing outcome it had I was really attracted to the company. When I heard they won the Times Top 100 Companies to Work For and the 50 years it has been successful I knew it would be an exciting place to work.

I currently work as a Branch Administrator in Derby. This is my first time in an admin role and I’m really enjoying it. The team are very professional but fun at the same time. They have taught me so much in the short time of me being here. I can already see a great future ahead.  

Outside of work I spend a lot of time with my friends and family as this is important to me. I try and go on holiday as much as I can each year as I love visiting new places and sight seeing. I would say I’m quite a social person, I go to the gym and aim to attend as many festivals and events as possible.
