How has your career developed since graduating from 麻豆传媒高清版, and what is your current job role? (could you provide a brief list of notable positions)

Since leaving Bangor I鈥檝e held a number of positions. I started working at Force24 as a BDR after graduating. I quickly moved into a Team Lead role within the business, and after a bit over a year, moved into managing a team of 10 BDRs. From there, I recently moved to managing a growing team of BDRs at AssessFirst. AssessFirst, has become a dominant player in their industry in France, but had yet to successfully tackle the UK market. I was brought in to oversee this growth and develop a sales function that can handle it.

Why did you choose to study at Bangor Business School?

Bangor is just a fantastic place to be. The scenery is amazing, and the University itself looks incredible. I鈥檇 heard great things about the student experience in Bangor, so I knew it would be a place I would enjoy.

How has your degree and experiences at Bangor Business School influenced your career/life?

I think my degree has impacted all areas of my career. I was able to progress quickly by using the skills I learnt at Bangor and applying them to a real world environment.

What advice would you give to students studying in the Bangor Business School? Ask for help if you need it.

Don鈥檛 do the bare minimum to get a 2:1. My extra curricular activities have helped me so far in my career as much as the degree. Being President of the poker society helped me with so many skills as I had to take a society that was banned the year prior, to one that eventually won the award for best new opportunity. Having a radio show on Bangor radio taught me so much about communication and questioning that I use every day in my role.

What was the best thing about studying at Bangor Business School?

There were some really great lecturers that genuinely cared about students success. It鈥檚 more than just a job to them. And a lot of them stay in touch after as well!

In what ways did studying in the Business School enhance your employability?

It gave me degree and a background to put myself forward to roles I would have otherwise not considered.
