What has been your biggest achievement in the last month?
To remain calm and collected in all the chaos that is happening in the world out there, the cost of living crisis is not helping people out there, so I'm doing the best I can in todays times to meet the clients needs, as this is important to me.
What has been the biggest challenge you have overcome in the last month?
Remaining calm and collected. We do take on quite a bit of criticism with the way the world is turning at the moment. Being able to empathise with the client is key here, they appreciate it when they know we are listening.
What are you excited for in the upcoming months?
For the last 5 years I've taken everything one day at a time. I cannot predict what is happening in the next couple of months but look forward to the challenges ahead.

I will always be a credit controller at heart so I have found my place, one day I aspire to be a deputy to my manager Sarah Norton.
What do you enjoy most about working at Close Brothers Premium Finance?
