What I thought I wanted to do: Produce food in some way, shape or form.
What I ended up doing:Packaging food
How I got here: Started developing new chocolates at Terry’s chocolate factory, moved into the packing of food and then began to oversee all aspects of supply and control of packaging materials.
Most useful skill or character trait for my job: Knowing all the different packaging items and usage so anomalies can be picked up on and investigated.
Top tip! Starting every new job is scary, there is an element of the unknown – embrace this and see it as part of your natural, ongoing development.
