I head up New homes division at MAB, I’m responsible for increasing new homes mortgage distribution within MAB and look after our New homes Appointed Representatives. I hold a central relationship on behalf of MAB with key stake holders within new homes market and government bodies together with UKs largest housebuilders.
I’m all about the routine, I wake up at 6am, start with a house tidy, then have breakfast with my son and the school run thereafter. I’ll be back by 8.30am to start my working day at my desk, clear emails and I usually have face to face meetings from 10am onwards.
I try to have flexible afternoons with a little break so I can collect my son from school at 4pm and will then be back at my desk by 5pm to carry on working.
First thing, I get all my challenging tasks out of the way early to manage my day better and the catch-up on smaller tasks later in the afternoon. This helps me manage my day better.
Organisation, routine, and lists. If I didn’t have structure of this, I’d never get anything done. I stick to a strict routine, which makes things so much easier.
I love going to the office for meetings, as I work remote half of the time, I really enjoy being in the office social environment. I’ve got a great team of people who I work with, as well as clients, so forming these relationships makes my job so enjoyable.
I meal prep for the week every Sunday, so weekday dinners are much easier for me. I enjoy cooking a variety of meals, but timing and prep is key to keeping my busy schedule.
I enjoy Pilates, it’s great for getting rid of tension. I love long walks with my son, preferably with nice weather.
Be confident and believe in your own capabilities. You’ve also got to be willing to put in the hard work and effort to achieve your goals.
I have been very fortunate that I’ve had a great network, who support me, believe in me and give me the opportunities to succeed.
