Giles is passionate about good careers education and skills development and we are privileged to have him working with us.

She has 25 years of experience in education and now works with young people aged 15-24 to help them structure their future and find a pathway to a sustainable and successful career. Jane’s network, expertise and resources will be invaluable to us in securing work experience placements for students, and supporting them with their next steps. We are very pleased to welcome her on board.
Both of our Enterprise Advisers will be working with us to deliver careers activities in school such as mock interviews and workshops, aswell as mentoring students on a one to one basis where required whilst giving us an insight in to the world of business.
