What’s been your biggest surprise at RBS? My biggest surprise has been the amount of responsibility that has been given to me. I thought I would be coming onto the role and have to watch people until I was trusted that I could do the role properly. You also feel really welcomed by people not just in your team, but the people running the apprenticeship are so supportive and really care about how you feel about the apprenticeship and if there are any problems, they will support you to make you feel better about any issues. Who would be your dream breakfast guest? My dream breakfast guest would be Michael McIntire because I know that it would be a good time! What are you most passionate about in your role? I am most passionate about making the customers and my team happy and doing what I need to do in an efficient amount of time. What would be your ideal weekend? My ideal weekend would be going out on Friday to the cinema to see a good film, Saturday morning go to the gym then go out for the day somewhere nice, maybe to a park in London, or ice skating or something fun and outdoors. Then go out for a meal in the evening somewhere unique and different. Finally on Sunday just have a chilled movie day at home! Do you have an inspirational quote you’d like to share?
