Meet James, Our New Marketing Assistant

by | Blog

We are delighted to welcome James to the team as our new Marketing Assistant. The team identified James via the government’s Kickstart Scheme. We will provide James with practical work experience within marketing. We also plan to give James experience in recruitment and HR to provide him with as much experience within the business industry as possible. The Kickstart Scheme is a great way to kickstart someone’s career, and we’re delighted to play our part. We have also agreed to pay for a block of driving lessons as this will provide James with more opportunities in the future.

James has achieved a Bachelor of Honours degree in Law this year and is looking forward to starting his professional career. We’re all looking forward to supporting him on this journey, and it’s great to give a young person this opportunity.
