Said the following about Ashleigh Lancaster - HAS LEFT:

“It’s been almost a year since Ashleigh joined Ford & Stanley as our Marketing Executive and it’s fair to say she’s come a long way during that time.

I remember clearly the day we interviewed her – a fresh and excitable graduate straight from Sheffield Hallam just dying to kick start her marketing career. It was our unique offering that intrigued her to take the offer of employment and it is that very offering that she worked tirelessly to market this year.

2018 has again, been a large growth year for Ford & Stanley and without the hard work and dedication of Ashleigh it would not have been possible to do much of what we have achieved. Ashleigh has played a big part in securing several partnership agreements with TOC's, Manufacturers, Consultancies and technology businesses. She has also taken the time to obtain candidate and client feedback via Net Promoter Scoring (NPS) for use in continuous improvements throughout the business, ultimately enhancing the services we offer to candidates and clients alike. Through obtaining this feedback and organising several successful networking events this year, Ashleigh has grown a serious network of contacts within the industry which has seen her knowledge of the industry expand and her confidence grow significantly.

Ashleigh has a flare for design and is all about thinking outside of the box – I especially love her eye for detail. Her own unique style runs through everything she creates, whether that be various press releases, social media posts or literature – she has without a doubt, significantly enhanced the external voice of Ford & Stanley this year.

Aside from the above, Ashleigh lives by our core values and her creativity shines through in everything she’s worked on this year. Ashleigh has been a brilliant addition to the team and it has been my absolute pleasure to work alongside her, watching her flourish.

I foresee a long and prosperous career for Ashleigh. I’m excited to see what she does next ! Bring on 2019 !!“
