Bio
Jamie Winter
I have known Helen since 2004 and watched her develop into a very rounded professional. Working together in 2004, Helen was my deputy as Assistant Manager of a Burger King Restaurant we ran successfully together for a year. I thoroughly enjoyed working with her and when the opportunity arose in the future to bring her to another business I worked for I was extremely pleased she joined me and to have a kindred spirit on board. We remained in the same company for a number of years but it was no surprise to me that Helen followed her passion and moved onto HR roles outside of the Motorway Sector. Helen always enthuses people, she has a vast wealth of knowledge and is someone who is always good to get an opinion from or make you look at something from another angle. I have found her to be loyal, hardworking and passionate in whatever line of work she has been in and any company which employs her would in my opinion be lucky to have her.
