Experience

Indigo Swan

• United Kingdom
• Utilities
• 1 - 100 Employee

• Client Discovery

  • Apr 2015 - Present

  My focus now at Indigo Swan is engaging with new businesses and introducing what we do to prospective clients.I enjoy contacting businesses and finding ways we can help make their lives easier. I believe we have that extra little something in our approach; even if that is simply being ethical and maintaining our values throughout everything we do. I understand the frustration of the endless calls and emails companies receive from energy brokers and suppliers, and with this empathy find I connect more successfully. In a nutshell, we are good at what we do, we like doing what we do and we want to help businesses focus more on what they are good at doing!

• Client Guide

  • Jan 2010 - Apr 2015

  My responsibilities within this role included introducing what we do to prospective clients, speaking to new businesses, collating all their data in order to understand their energy needs, going out to tender, negotiating competitive prices and presenting their options so the client could make an informed decision. I was then their one point of call and managed any queries or issues for them. I managed a number of accounts for businesses of varying sizes, from small corner shops to large factories or multi site housing associations.



CarbonAqua

• Renewable Energy Semiconductor Manufacturing
• 1 - 100 Employee

• Project Manager

  • Aug 2007 - Jan 2010

  After returning to Norfolk I worked for CarbonAqua. Their approach to help businesses reduce their impact on the environment by installing energy saving technologies resonated well with me. I have always wanted to be part of something that makes a difference to our world and the people who live in it. One of my favorite quotes is from the inspiring Mother Theresa: "What we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But if that drop was not in the ocean, I think the ocean would be less because of that missing drop.’



Mortgage Advice Bureau

• United Kingdom
• Financial Services
• 700 & Above Employee

• Telemarketer

  • Jan 2004 - Jun 2007

  After completing my humanities degree in Nottingham, I worked at the Mortgage Advice Bureau which initiated my journey into sales. Although it enlightened my passion for talking to people and enjoyment of grabbing their interest, dare I say mortgage advice didn’t really light my fire! So I returned to my homeland in Norfolk in search of being part of something bigger.
