I started working in estate agency back in 2005 when I joined Miles & Barr as a trainee. At the time I had a few friends already in the industry who I had spoken to and the discussed what the role entailed and recommended I give it a go. Initially, I didn't see myself doing this for the rest of my life, I felt it more of a stop gap but I was really enjoying it after just a few weeks in the job.
I like the fact that I work for the market leading agent in the area. As a company they always like to promote from within wherever possible, three of the current directors started off as trainee negotiators at Miles & Barr, which is great to see for new staff who are looking to join. The company also really looks after the staff, running competitions with prizes ranging from vouchers, city breaks or even a trip to Orlando.
I have a young family, so when time allows you may find me on the golf course or watching my beloved Manchester United. I also love to spend time in The New Forest with my family and dogs, we usually get there a couple of times a year.
