I am and ex Financial Adviser turned Recruiter, Head-hunter and career coach.
I live in the North West with my family and I have a specialist recruitment firm, ARR Talent Limited.
At Bespoke Training Solutions, my role involves helping financial advisers, paraplanners, financial administrators and employers with study plans for technical exams. My approach is to bring a human element to professional qualification support, after all, it is the diversity of human experience that makes financial services such an interesting sector to work in. I love working with such a wide range of people and seeing them progress and achieve their personal and professional goals.
I hold a Postgraduate Diploma in Education, specialising in lifelong learning. I also hold Postgraduate Diploma in Careers Education, specialising in professional and degree level careers guidance. I originally graduated with an LLB (Law) in 2004 and since then have spent many years working as a careers coach, tutor, and trainer, supporting adults during career transitions. You could say professional development and lifelong learning are my passion!
Experience of over 25 years in multiple production areas including digital,print, client services and creative solutions. I have seen many highs and lows working within the Mortgage sector, but very happy to say it's still a buzzing sector to work in with things changing all the time. I am passionate about making time for my family and work colleagues. Happy to lend an ear to anyone.
