"Working at the Council I’ve always been supported and encouraged to grow, achieve and do the best I possibly can. The authority funded me to complete a Master’s degree in Social Work at the University of Nottingham. It was hard work, but I achieved a First Class with great support and encouragement from my manager and team.
It’s the people that really make Nottinghamshire a great place to work and being part of a strong and supportive team is a fundamental ingredient to success. I honestly feel that working somewhere else I wouldn’t have been able to achieve everything that I have.
Having initially gained promotion to the role of Practice Consultant, I’m now a Team Manager. Moving forward in my career I’m keen to continue to achieve and will take what I’ve learnt on the frontline to focus on improving social work practice."
