MEET THE
TEAM.

Tell us how you got here.

Unlike most stories you will read, I did not come from a construction background. The journey that led me to McGee has had a few twists and turns, but it is a journey I am proud of.

After my A-Levels in 2002, I started work for a finance company in the admin department. In 2005, I became a Mum, and after a year’s maternity leave, I returned to work and worked my way up to Senior Assistant to 6 managers, 2 area managers and 1 regional manager. In 2014, my son needed a life-changing operation; this encouraged my decision to take voluntary redundancy and a career change, which would allow me to work flexibly whilst caring for my son.

At the beginning of 2020, I decided it was time to return to London. I was at the McGee Head Office for my interview days later and haven’t looked back since.

Why McGee?

McGee encourages growth within the company. With the support of my line manager, I have grown the role of office manager and what it demands, and I plan to continue to do so.

What tips would you give to others considering a career change?

I believe it is very important for you to enjoy your job and the company of the people you work with, something I feel not only lucky with here at McGee but also proud to say I am part of.

This little snippet of me will hopefully give you, whether you’re another young mum or someone who wants to change careers, the confidence and inspiration to do so.
