Tells us about your career route to your current role

I started off my career in development at Wall to Wall, but halfway through the Pact Scheme I was placed on the casting team on Glow Up Series 2 and really loved my time there. I never knew casting was a job you could do in TV and I learned some amazing skills I still use today. I mainly stayed working in casting, coming back for series 3 & 4 of Glow Up, until around the end of 2021 when I was approached to join the global development team at Fremantle as a Researcher and the rest is history! 

What would you say to people who are considering joining the Pact Scheme?

Get your application in as soon as possible! The scheme has really changed my life, not only are you placed with an amazing company that gives you invaluable experience, but you'll be doing the scheme alongside a group of other trainees who'll end up being your peers in the industry, which is so vital to have!

What two key things did the Pact Scheme give you? 

Confidence and connections.
