What do you like about your job and the company?
No day is the same and the autonomy to structure my work helps me achieve at my best. I enjoy the pace within Asset Management - there is a constant drive to get things done!
Greatest achievements
Phoenix have a variety of family leave policies, the highlights that helped me during this life stage are:
1. 6 months paid maternity leave
2. a phased return to work (with no impact to salary)
3. working flexibly, I have Friday as a non-working day

I understand this isn't for everyone but we're in a business and company which thrives on change so we should be accustomed to it. Change is good for your career progression and also ties in with personal challenge which helps with development. You don't know whether your good at something until you've tried it and you'll be surprised how the skills gained in one role can be translated and enhanced in another.
