    • Training Manager, Management Team
      • Apr 2018 - May 2019

      I joined Propser on the MMT team 1 year into its existence of being a company. Having this start up experience was awesome to my growth and development and probably one of the best things I could have done as a young adult. At Prosper, what we do is quite simply using finance for good. In my time there, I delivered an 8 week training programme to 42 social finance analysts from all degree backgrounds. This included weeks covering: -Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Criteria-Financial Evaluation and Accountancy -Social impact investments and how to track themThis led to 18 successful ESG stock pitches with Prosper choosing 10 to invest in. After 5 years, the profits gained from these investments will be returned to the local community (ie charities and social enterprises) in Edinburgh through the form of community interest grants.

    • FUTURE AS5ET Ambassador
      • Nov 2018 - Jul 2019

      Future As5et is in initiative launched by Stewart Investors to promote greater diversity in the finance industry. As only 1 in 10 fund managers in the UK are female, the company works with girls in their final years of high school (s5 and s6 in Scotland) to educate them about the finance and break the stereotype that finance has to be a male-dominated industry. As an ambassador for Future As5et, I was involved in running of their Roadshows held at the University of Edinburgh's Business School. The girls were introduced to the world of investing through fun activities such as: -Thought-invoking pitches from investment CEOs where the pupils had to decide where to invest their money -An investment game where teams had to work together to manage an imaginary portfolio when faced with political and economic challenges These activities provided the girls with insight into the type of thinking required for a job in finance, with the wider aim of tackling the stigma against women not being as capable as men in the industry.
