I have a job!

[UKDEB]

Having been made redundant from Barclays Bank in May 2000 after 20 years working for them full-time, I have a new job! Apart from a 6 month stint when I returned to Barclays at the beginning of last year, at their request, I have thoroughly enjoyed being a stay-at-home Mum for the first time in my life. I think I've milked it for all it's worth now and when dh started getting the tics I decided it was time to think about working for my supper again!

I start on 15 April working for...




wait for it...




Barclays Bank :rolleyes: Will I never learn? ;) <i>(You didn't think I was going to say Disney, did you?)</i> ;)

My job description is Relationship Development Manager and I shall be responsible for developing relationships (not just a clever name!) with KBIs (Key Business Influencers - Solicitors, Accountants, Estate Agents, etc), existing customers and the media, to win business for the Corporate Banking sector. And the job is what they describe as 'location independant' which means I can choose to work from home, or the office.

I had to go through a pretty gruelling 'selection centre' assessment day, so I'm feeling pretty chuffed with myself and excited about getting started.

:D :D :D

Great news Deb. My new job is also 'location independent' so I'm spending some time working at home and some time in the office in Warwick - it's a very civilised way to balance life and work!

[CarolynU]

Excellent news Debbie I'll certainly toast your success tonight, and I think you have just cause to get WDW planning now. Carolyn:D :D

[LouiseB]

Well done Deb on your new job - I'm sure you'll love it! I do exactly the same job as you will be doing, but for a building society, and you are effectively your own boss. The only downside is sometimes there are only so many business lunches a girl can eat in one week!!

[Kevin Stringer]

Congratulations Deb!

More money = more WDW holidays.
That reminds me, must get Tam to work more hours! ;)
