Everything led me to a career in Workplace Management and Facilities:1. My resourcefulness and knack for solving problems (complex at that) 2. Frugality and ability to make sound judgements (including money-related) 3. Relentless desire for order and keeping things organised (the look, feel, experience)4. My vibrant personality, connecting and bringing people together (always a networker)5. Drive for results and improvement, bias for action! (always a high excellence bar)It's funny how we look back at what we were like as children, what made us thrive, what friends knew us for, and how that suddenly makes such perfect sense when we look at the careers we built. I started my professional journey with Ulster Bank in a financial business support function. I then progressed through roles with expanded scope of responsibility and exposure to more complex challenges, calling for strong decision-making, negotiating, senior stakeholder management, execution, and of course - acute understanding of facilities management nuances. Most recently, I had a fantastic and unique opportunity to lead the Facilities and Security function for a high-end, luxury business - Bulgari. I’m a workplace SME - Subject Matter Expert.
