How are you finding working at CP so far?
It’s been exciting! It’s the first time I’ve changed jobs, so it was quite scary at first but the team has been incredibly welcoming! I’ve had a small glimpse into how things work, and I’m really excited to get more and more involved.
What’s your background?
I studied marketing as part of my business studies A-Level in sixth form alongside IT and Sport, which gave me some flexibility in terms of career options post school.
After completing my A-Levels, I wasn’t too keen on university. For that reason, I jumped straight into a Digital Marketing Apprenticeship. I worked at an IT Managed Service Provider as part of my apprenticeship, doing their marketing as part of the commercial team. I was fortunate enough to get experience in the retail, B2B and B2E sectors.
When I finished my apprenticeship, I was able to stay on as the Digital Marketing Executive and I eventually got more involved on the commercial side of things. However, I decided I wanted to work in a more dedicated Marketing role and team which led me to Creative Pod!
Tell us something random about you...
At some point, I owned around 40 pairs of trainers. I don’t know how my parents didn't kick me out!
Who are your biggest influences?
My parents have been an influence to me for as long as I can remember. Coming to the UK, they’ve been extremely hard working and have sacrificed a lot for me. Their attitude and mentality towards things is inspiring. Besides them, I have the best girlfriend who is my number one supporter. She motivates me every day to be the best version of myself! (I’m currently held to gunpoint as I type this…)
