What do you like about your job and the company?

I enjoy the challenges that being recruitment lead brings. I have a small team of recruiters, who deal with all our permanent recruitment for CDIO Borders & Trade. Processes change quite quickly and over the last few months there have been organisation changes as well, so feel that I am always learning and updating my knowledge.

Greatest achievements

Before COVID my team were nominated for a HMRC peoples award, where we were invited to a ceremony in London. It was lovely for the team to be recognised for all the hard work that they do.

I think we can all feel a sense of imposter syndrome, and that inner voice saying you are not capable. You are ! I think we all need to recognise that work can be challenging and not always as straightforward as you want it to be, which is where the doubt can set it. Its all about building that resilience for me, don't give up. If you want something just keep working towards it, even if that means taking it slowly.

No matter what job I've done over the years there has always been people impacted by it. Whether I was sorting out a customers Tax, National Insurance record, developing new IT systems, or delivering new policies or even opening new buildings its people that have been affected at the end of it. Its easy to forget when wrapped up in the day to day activities of your job, that I have made life better for a huge amount of people over the years but in tiny bite size chunks
