Data Analyst

I joined SPACE in September as an Apprentice Data Analyst. I am enjoying the role and environment very much, I am learning a lot from the team and look forward to being able to apply my skills and make positive contributions to the operation. When I am not working I have two small children at home that keep me very busy!

Finance Officer

I have worked for the service for over 13 years (as Devon Youth Service and DYS Space Ltd) I started as an Administrator in our Exmouth Centre, I have been working in the central team for about 3 years now as a Finance Officer. I have recently completed AAT Level 3, and am currently studying for AAT Level 4. Personally, I have two sons. Both keep me on my toes! I also have my beloved miniature dachshund Oakley, who is an honorary member of the Central Team. We live near the beach and the local common and enjoyed spending most weekends, and summer evenings walking there.
