I am currently a Director at KEYFORT and have been with the company for 13 years. My role involves overseeing operations, ensuring service quality, and driving the organisation’s vision to support individuals in both Academic/Employment Services and Community Services.

My Career Path

I began my journey at KEYFORT as a Rehab Worker while studying Psychology at Northumbria University, seeking hands-on experience. Wanting to progress further, I moved into an Assistant Psychologist role, where I applied my academic knowledge by working closely with a Clinical Psychologist to implement various strategies and interventions.

As I continued to grow within the organisation, I became increasingly interested in the Academic division. I transitioned into the Service Manager role, followed by Head of Operations. Recognising that social care was the right career path for me, I was placed on a development plan to become a director, gaining invaluable experience along the way.

Why Social Care?

Social care offers a dynamic and fulfilling career, allowing me to make a real impact on people’s lives. My journey from frontline roles to leadership has reinforced the importance of providing high-quality, person-centred support. KEYFORT has given me the opportunity to grow, develop, and contribute to an industry that truly makes a difference.
