Everyone Active employee profile

“I used to do a lot of sports at school, and have always been interested in learning more about the fitness industry, so when a front of house apprenticeship came up at Sunbury Leisure Centre I decided to go for it.

“I got a lot of support from the Everyone Active team, including regular meetings with my line manager and on-the-job training. I also completed my Customer Service Level 2 qualification and am now studying for an NVQ in sales.

“Interacting with customers and people on the phone every day has helped a lot with my confidence and I moved into sales in August 2015. I’m now a full time membership consultant, which I really enjoy.

“I think apprenticeships are a great introduction to the work environment and help young people to become more mature, so when you do start working full-time, you’re ready for it.”
