Jamie took part in a Level 3 management qualification and has excelled from day one. He has shown great commitment and desire right from the start and was the only person in the group to take on the challenge of the business studies project as opposed to simply answering questions. His work is excellent and he has always been a vocal and important member of the group. Jamie combines hard work with an aptitude for man management and he is a keen believer in delegation and personal development; skills he has used to great effect in the first six months of his new position. He has also been a great advocate of the importance of learning – he has helped and supported many of his team to try and achieve their own work goals.
