I joined the company as an entry-level consultant in the newly formed Key Accounts team, I have been progressing with the company and I have now been promoted to Senior Manager. At the moment I’m looking to continue the growth of my team by adding to the headcount and in supporting their development to help them to achieve their aspirations.

I'm surrounded by great people, a unique culture, the drive for excellence and fearless ambition. The knowledge and opportunity Whitehall gives people to unlock their career potential is second to none. The job is mentally challenging but the culture here is fun, genuine and fast-paced.

The best thing about Whitehall is the people — I feel really privileged that I get to work as part of such an enjoyable team. Yes, it can be hard work, but the team are always there to support you, lift you up and to help you succeed. Also, there is nowhere in Colchester that you can earn the sort of money we can!
