Hi! I've been at Spirit Energy since 2020, and am currently a part of our technical design & sales team. It's my job to help my clients to understand all things solar & battery - to work out the best possible solutions for their roofs and show them the financial and environmental returns they can expect from the different options.
But often I'll come away from these interactions feeling I've learned more from my customers than they've learned from me - so many people have been exceedingly generous with their time, sharing their own experiences in business and giving me all sorts of advice that's proving invaluable at the early days of my career.
I've also become a key part of the Spirit Energy marketing department. I'm largely responsible for our YouTube channel and feature in the majority of the videos. We're finding these videos to be very helpful at showing off the expertise of the company and our amazing design team, as well as showing potential clients who we are - warts and all. I also featured in a short program that we took part in for Sky. The program shows how Spirit is helping to make the UK more sustainable and the struggles that the country will face as we aim to hit net zero.
Outside work, I also enjoy lifting weights, chess and tennis. When I was younger, I took tennis very seriously, spending 2 years playing 25 hours a week at a full-time tennis academy. I didn't make it in the end, but it did give me a very clear idea of the work ethic required to be the best and I suspect that's one of the most important things any education can give you.
