Welcome back to our 10 with the team series! Introducing, Amelia Pegum. Amelia is on the Client Service team at TK and has been a great addition. Some of her duties at TK include onboarding experts, organising client meetings and supporting on projects.
Let's ask Amelia 10 quick-fire questions to get to know her better!
Q1. What has your experience been like so far working at TK?
My experience so far has been eye opening, there are always jobs that need doing. It’s also been a great transition into office life for me!
Q2. What's the most surprising thing you've learnt from this job?
The amount of research that goes into investments and business activities. Also the way you communicate with different human beings always varies. It's been interesting finding my niche tone when catering different personalities.
Q3. What advice would you give to someone who’s new here?
Don't be afraid to speak up to the team, they are always open to new ideas and happy to help. Just be yourself! I really enjoy learning about everyone's different perspectives.
Q4. If you could swap places for a day with any of your co-workers, who would it be and why?
Probably Tate. He’s in Business Development and I think it would be great to understand that and work with new prospects. I'm always wanting to learn new things.
Q5. What’s something many people don't know about you?
My near-death experience of Appendicitis, or that I love riding horses.
Q6. If you were an expert in anything, what would it be in?
Probably Art.... I majored in art history and have worked in a variety of galleries. It is my passion!
Q7. If our team went on a reality TV show, which one do you think we’d win?
Are you smarter than a 5th grader?! lol
Q8. How do you see your future career path?
What I've gained from working here has been a realisaton of my passion to talking to people and multitasking. I find I work best when I'm my busiest and I know I'll implement that later in life and bring it to my future roles.
Q9. Who’s one person you’d invite to dinner, dead or alive?
Margaret Thatcher, I want her to enlighten me on how to take over the world!
Q10. What’s one thing about the company culture that you really enjoy?
It’s open nature and it’s easy to chat to anyone no matter what role they are in. If I have a problem or a question, I don't hesitate to ask! Charlie’s afternoon chocolate delivery is always appreciated too!
