What did you want to be when you were 8? Professional Golfer
What made you choose the company you work for?
After studying the International Finance degree, which focused predominantly on investments, I wanted to put my knowledge into practice. UBS is the world’s largest wealth manager and the perfect place to develop my career.
What do you do on an average day?
I work with the UBS Client Advisors to ensure our clients receive the very best service. My days are always varied, from liaising with clients, to analysing the ever-changing financial markets, to even organising the UBS Football team. UBS allows me to adapt and innovate in an ever-changing environment
