Contact details
This is a demanding job, no doubt. We all work hard and we are all driven, self-motivated people. But I can also tell you that you’ll make some of your best friends here, and there’s a lot to enjoy here outside of work too—we have a very active social committee. I’ve led the London choir since I came here—our annual carol service is a very special event! Whether you’re into badminton, live music, running, football or theatre, there’s a club or group for you.
