Tell us about you and your Admiral story?
I have been at Admiral for 8 years. Before joining Admiral, I spent most of my working life in construction. I started as a Handler in Customer Care and worked in a variety of roles before moving to the Recruitment department. Recruitment was always an area that I felt my skills could most be utilised, as cheesy as it sounds, changing people’s lives and giving them the same opportunities that I had was super appealing for me!
