Letting your passion shine through, and letting your personality come out in your work is, for me, really important. When you enjoy your work, it is great to let that show as it helps others see that passion, and shows you are motivated and engaged by what you do. I also think it is really important to be open and honest at work at well. Let your manager and colleagues know how you are feeling, and don't be afraid to ask questions - especially in Trading, asking questions is so important in helping you learn and understand the role.

What do you like about your job and the company?

One of the most exciting things about Trading is you get to see the result of the actions and strategies you implement really quickly. It is always really satisfying to see sales improve off the back of decisions you made and being able to see the instant benefit that brings to the bottom line of the business. Trading also gives you the chance to try new things and take different approaches. No day is the same, and you can take many different actions to try and improve sales, so seeing which ones work the best and which don't means you learn new things quickly.

Be who you want to be. I put the time in to build myself in my career and even now I am still growing. The support and help I've got around me means I have constant help to get me where I want in my career. Even if you don't want to progress up within your role, the support is there as and when needed. Happiness is key within a career, if you aren't happy in what you are doing then it's probably not a role for you. But when you are happy in your role then that will radiate off of you.

Top Insider Advice

Throughout my career I have had obstacles to overcome, sometimes I didn't succeed but I would use this to learn more and try again. I have learnt that the phrase 'try, try and try again' is real. I always have looked at where I want to be and developed a plan to get there, sometimes I have detoured from the route but that's ok, as long as I make it in the end. Believing I will drives me forward.
