I started work straight from school at 16. I worked my way through machinist, cashier, customer services and foreign department doing a wide variety of tasks. In 1993 Nat West undertook some major restructuring and staff reduction and I took the opportunity to job share as I was expecting my first child. At the same time I started my own sign business that I still run with my husband. I resumed duties after my maternity leave in the Foreign Department where I took on the role of Foreign Investigations Officer. My main task was to track down missing money transfers into and out of the U.K. for our customers. I took charge of correspondence with overseas financial institutions from the initial loss until the case was resolved. I resigned from Nat West in 1999 after the birth of my second child for childcare reasons. Show less
