I’ve had the pleasure of spending the past few months building and running a proposal centre for a large financial services company – an ‘interim’, ‘part time’ assignment that’s been tremendously enjoyable. (Hey, at times I’ve almost felt like a regular commuter - same train, same seat. I knew I’d been doing this for a while when I forgot my ticket one morning, and the conductor told me that it wasn’t a problem as he recognised me!)

The team’s now in place: their new manager’s poised to take over the reigns. And so, before setting out for the office on my last day of formally running the team, I just wanted to say a public thank you to them for a tremendously enjoyable few months. Good luck! I’m really proud of what you’ve achieved so far, and know you’ll go on to do even greater things - and have fun doing so!
