Project Officer

I have worked in an education environment since 2021. My first role was 14-19 School Liaison Officer for Coleg y Cymoedd followed by Employability and Enterprise Coach in Merthyr College. Both roles required me working with a range of students from all different backgrounds, something I really enjoy doing.

Project Officer

I have worked in various educational settings over the last 27 years. Including primary, FE and HE. I have worked with students from various social and economic backgrounds. My passion particularly lies working with students with additional learning needs and those who need extra support. In my previous project I was responsible for creating practical workshops to develop young people's understanding of vocational education.
