Top Insider Advice

By experience a project is like a journey, the goal is essential but the path to get there is just as important. Keeping good relationship, a "can-do" attitude, open to find the right compromise to move forward are essential. There are strong things to take away from all projects, even in the failures and that should in no case affect the following experience, on the contrary it should reinforce it. Grow together all the time in contact with others, whatever the age or experience, mutual exchange is essential. Work is an important part of our life, it must be source of wisdom as well and part of our personal development.

What do you like about your job and the company?

I really appreciate our Project mode organization, ensuring confidence, autonomy and complete view of each project. It's a project mode inside my team (with Brand, Content and Comms manager), with all others Kingfisher stakeholders in charge the roll out ( Product, Quality, Packaging) and with our Banners Teams (Market, POS, Digital, Catalogue, Marketing...). It enriches both my Professional and Personal experience

Greatest achievements

I am very satisfied with a previous Joinery project (windows) creating a strong asset pack with lots of rich content as imageries, videos, icons set, line drawings. It had an impact on artwork packaging rendering, and all my recommendations about web page layout, videos and imagery use on Social Media have been respected by Digital and Content teams to ensure a perfect roll out of the new range. Web pages were attractive with links to video and imagery carousel, The "How to install" video (very difficult to manage) had lots of view in the YouTube channel and the Range video had a great impact as well. A nice project to work on with a 360 impact on comms.

Sometimes the best opportunities are the ones you don't see coming. Be your own authentic self and if you see an opportunity which catches your eye - go for it! You have nothing to lose, and you could just end up in a great new environment where you're able to keep learning, inspiring and loving what you do.

There are better and worse days in my job, but each of them can be considered a success when you work in a close-knit team with people who know what to do. Working in a purchasing office involves a lot of dynamics and decision-making under time pressure. In such a situation, teamwork is the key to success. I see my daily work as a quality engineer as a challenge - new experiences, new people, and unusual problems. There are days when achieving new goals is easy, but there are also moments when every step is bought with a lot of effort. My most important advice for 'beginners': Work with people you can rely on. Set yourself goals that you are capable of achieving. Build good relationships with suppliers.

It's a powerful truth that many of us need to hear when we're standing at the crossroads of aspiration and reality. We all have dreams, whether it’s building a successful career, starting a business, traveling the world, or making a positive impact on the community. But too often, we let our dreams sit idle, cherished in our hearts but never brought to life. Without action, even the most beautiful dreams will stay out of reach. It’s the steps you take today that turn your aspirations into tangible achievements. To turn your dreams into something real, you have to take the leap and start moving forward, no matter how small the first step may seem. The road from dream to reality is paved with consistent action and determination.
