My career at the Bank of England has been an interesting, valuable and unique experience. I enjoy working in a transparent, agile environment where knowledge is shared freely.
Every day, I’m inspired to stretch myself because every day brings something different and challenging.
One highlight was doing an outreach event at a school, where I talked to the students about my work in information technology. It was something I couldn’t have done before.
I really enjoy being empowered to take ownership of projects. I like, working closely with other business areas around the Bank of England and learning non-technology subject matter.
