Don't just take our word for it...

I joined the XPS Recruitment team in 2021, right after graduating from university, with the intention of staying for just a year before travelling. Four years later, I’m still here! After my travels, I returned to XPS and discovered a passion for project management. In 2024, I transitioned to the Administration projects team, where I was encouraged to pursue my PRINCE2 practitioner qualification. This enabled me to enhance my skills and lead major projects within the department. I was promoted to consultant grade, received an internal award for my project contributions, and secured a new position within the project management team!
