I am so thankful to FORVIS for closing our offices last week so we could enjoy deep rest. My rest took the form of umpteen hours of k-drama binging and a collective 14 hours of Lego-ing, as well as spending time with my family and cooking and baking and other things that bring me joy. The fruits of last week’s labor may look different from my normal work products, but the principles practiced are the same: 1- We can do hard things. 2- Pay attention to detail. 3- Documentation is KEY. 4- Trust the process. 5- Get comfortable in the mess, because the middle steps rarely look like the end result. 6- What looks like a just another block might be an opportunity, if you can reimagine it and get it in the right spot. 7- Don’t forget a piece. Inclusion is key to the strength of any structure. 8- When the hours are long, celebrate small wins to keep going. What sorts of activities bring you joy? What parallels can you find to your work? If there aren’t any, you might be doing the wrong work!

Hurray! It’s been almost 3 months since I joined Wragby Business Solutions & Technologies Limited, and I truly feel like I’m in the right place at the right time. The work environment is not just inspiring; it really reinforces our drive for excellence and provides a safe space for career growth and collaboration. I’ve often heard the saying, “Your colleagues are not your friends,” but in less than 5 months here, I’ve built relationships that go beyond mere friendship. This really speaks to the inclusive culture at Wragby. The past 2 months have felt like a fresh start for me, giving me the chance to rewrite my career story on a new page. The onboarding process has been the best I’ve ever experienced, giving me a comprehensive view of each department and a clear vision of the endless opportunities in technology. Here’s to a new beginning in Tech Sales! It feels great to be part of a team dedicated to simplifying the complexities of IT processes. Wragbyrocks!!! #Sales #Technology #Careergrowth

I look the part now (but I haven’t got a clue what I’m doing!). So far my roles have entailed smiling, chatting, hoovering, tea making, searching for a lost pin and trying not to ask every customer if they own an HMO. I got my shirt and tie yesterday which means I will get even more customers come to me first with their enquiry after they mistake me for the senior branch manager - my ‘boss’ is 25 years old and I look like I’m auditing him or his area manager. This is until a customer expects me to open my mouth and I stumble through delivering some hastily acquired basic knowledge to them. What have I learned about Timpsons so far? Firstly, all of the colleagues have a pride about themselves and act like their little shop is their own. They take ownership of pricing and have autonomy over many aspects of their branch. Customer service is right at the core and it’s not all lip service. I hear calls between colleagues and every one of them has been about being helpful and going above and beyond. The family-run operation creates a real identity and an energy where it’s clear that everyone is rowing in the same direction. The staff are respected and looked after but they are expected to be puntucal, helpful, supportive and on brand. It works well. I’m taking so much out of this job. Obviously I won’t be cutting keys for a living but, for the few weeks that I’m here, I can learn about the business, their growth, how the operate and manage their people and I’ll take those lessons with me throughout my own business career going forward. But first off it’s back to standing and observing and smiling and feeling like a school boy in a shirt that’s one size too small. The only criticism thus far is the god damn awful clip on tie. 👨🏼💼 What a very good company though. After today that’s my week completed with Timpsons and I’ll be working ’in property’ on Thursday and Friday. It’ll be the same next week. If you have any property (HMO valuation/sales troubleshooting or issues), feel free to get in touch. I’m pro bono right now. #UKPrisonSystem #ExOffenders #ReentryUK #LeavingPrison #SecondChance #CriminalJusticeUK #ProbationJourney #PrisonerReform #RehabilitationUK #FreedomAfterTime #ExOffenderSupport #PrisonReentry #RebuildLives #PostPrisonLife #UnlockingOpportunities

I am pleased to post our 2nd SCARC Spotlight this week! Please enjoy. If you or anyone you know would like to come join us, please share our hiring link! SCARC Inc. SCARC Foundation SCARC Staff Spotlight!🤩 Have you heard that SCARC has THE BEST staff?! In the coming weeks we will be spotlighting our amazing Direct Support Staff members with fun interviews and giving you a glimpse of the important work they do each day. If you or someone you know would like to join us in making a difference, you can find our current job openings here: https://lnkd.in/eGiCr-YY 🌟 Meet Carlie! Carlie Casterline is the Acting Manager at our Newton Home. She joined the team in June of 2020🌟 What is the best advice you’d give someone just starting as a DSP at SCARC? Keep an open mind! Just because one house or day program doesn’t work out doesn’t mean that none will! Try to help out at various programs and always remember the reason why you got into this field. How have you grown professionally while on SCARC’s Team? SCARC has opened so many opportunities in my short time here. I was fortunate enough to move up to an assistant manager within the first eight months of working for SCARC and it feels as if the rest just paved the way itself. I have learned how to work with coworkers of all ages, be a supervisor for someone who is significantly older than me, communicate in a professional manner, and most importantly I learned that it is okay to ask for help! What’s the best part of your job? The best part of my job is the individuals I serve and the staff that have become a huge part of my life. Being able to advocate for those I serve and seeing them grow is so extremely rewarding. Which of SCARC’s values resonate with you the most and why? Integrating our individuals into the community for sure! I love going out with our residents as a group and taking them on one on one outings. I love seeing the smiles on their faces when we go out and showing the community how great our individuals are. What is one thing you wish people knew about SCARC? I wish that people knew how much fun everyone at SCARC is. I wish people knew that this job is not just sitting in a house or program, but rather engaging with our individuals and spending time with them in the community. What is your favorite quote? “Work hard in silence, let success be your noise.” -Frank Ocean What do you do for fun outside of work? I am a volunteer EMT for Newton EMS as well as a nursing student. Most of my time is spent in the back of an ambulance or in a hospital, but when I do get a free moment outside of that I love riding my quad and being with my dog.
