We are really enjoying and appreciate the career journey stories; not only do they help to showcase the diverse and vibrant roles but they help individuals connect the opportunities with their own skills set and passion points. Keep them coming 🙌🏻 #Mmmakeyourmark #careers #inspiration
I'm proud to support the #Mmmakeyourmark campaign, aimed at inspiring the next generation to explore the dynamic world of food and drink. My first industry job was at a local Tesco Express 🛒 where I worked part-time while finishing Sixth Form. Like many, I wasn’t sure of my path after school and went straight into the world of work, rejoining the industry a few years later as a training coordinator, a role that perfectly suited my organised nature and passion for connecting with people. There are so many routes into the industry and the careers opportunities are endless, allowing for continuous skill development. I can say that as someone who has had a squiggly career including things like sales, account management, project management, marketing, events, launching industry-wide initiatives, developing training programmes, communications, and more. Many people 'fall into' this industry, but what truly matters is their decision to stay and build fantastic and varied careers 🍒 Now, over 15 years later, I am more enthusiastic than ever about my work and the exciting future ahead 🌠 Here’s why this industry is so special: 💚 It's fast-paced 💚 It feeds the nation 💚 It spans the globe 💚 It constantly innovates 💚 The people are amazing 💚 Together, we tackle some of the biggest challenges facing our planet.
