After six years of working in accounts and admin I knew I was ready for a new challenge. Management is something that always fascinated me. I am passionate about working with people and creating an environment in which individuals and teams can reach their full potential. I talked about my skills and possible opportunities with a friend. My love for spreadsheets and organising things only exacerbated the realisation that project management was the perfect role for me.
It’s been amazing. Starting a new job, working from home in this current climate was quite nerve-racking but the whole team has been so lovely and welcoming. Working from Zoom has definitely helped to get me set up and communicate with the team throughout. I have loved being able to get stuck in speaking with clients and managing their projects. I am looking forward to everyone working back at the office and excited to meet everyone in person.
I feel that in this short time I have already learnt so much. Project management is essentially the practise of turning ideas into reality. Working in Twentytwo I have been able to follow a few projects from start to finish witnessing the brief become reality. Going forward I would like to find ways to broaden my knowledge within design and understand the lingo.
My favourite place is a cold day snuggled up with the kids watching a film with a bar of milk chocolate in one hand and a cup of tea in the other.
