Assistant Project Manager, Lifestyle Sector
After completing my degree in French & Spanish, I worked on a number of temporary assignments before joining ARCADIS AYH in September 2005 as an assistant project manager. The first project I became involved in was the Emirates Stadium for Arsenal FC responsible for managing the £5m procurement and installation of all the fixtures, fittings and equipment. This project was successfully completed in July 2005 and thereafter I became involved in the new Arsenal Headquarters building and a related project to provide a public amenity space as part of Arsenal's Section 106 planning obligations.
In addition, I have been given the chance to utilise my language skills on various overseas projects which has been a great way to make practical use of my degree. These opportunities add variety to the working day and makes ARCADIS AYH an exciting company to work for. Great opportunities are afforded to young employees, with a superb mentoring support network, which is really beneficial for personal development. This and the healthy social scene promoting inter-departmental and client networking, gels together to make every day a unique and anticipated experience.
