When did you join Red Gate?

May 2007

What was your first ever job?

Working at Millies Cookies.

Before you arrived at Red Gate what did you do?

I went to Beauty College but decided that it definitely was not for me!

What does your job involve on a day-to-day basis?

At the moment it is mainly taken up by the refit of the whole building. It also involves dealing with reactive requests from members of staff.

What do you like about working in office services at Red Gate?

I love my team, we get on so well and I think that's an important factor as to why I love my job so much.

Complete the following sentence: I know everything there is to know about...

My knowledge on Films is pretty good.

What's your favourite book?

One Day by David Nicholls.

What super power do you wish you had (or have but aren't telling anyone because that's the point of being super)?

It would be so cool to be able to read people's minds!

Why did you choose Red Gate?

They have a good reputation and everyone seemed very friendly, but they are the ones who chose me and I'm very happy they did.

What are your favourite Red Gate perks?

Amazing free food for breakfast and lunch.

What's your most memorable Red Gate experience so far?

Another incredible perk is a 6 week paid sabbatical that you are entitled to after you have been here for 5 years. I’ve just had 2 months in South America that I would never have had the opportunity to take otherwise. I missed all of my colleagues and couldn’t wait to get back though, obviously :)

What's your stance on Marmite?

Love it!!
