Sue joined the Junior Achievement team in October 2009. She is also a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development.

Anyone who has met Sue will know that she is very passionate about helping young people get their first steps on the career ladder. With her wealth of experience in the local job market, she provides an essential link between education and employment.

Sue has experienced first hand how the work of Junior Achievement can help transform lives and believes that it is who you meet that can make a difference.

  • Your newsletter was timely this morning. Given our previous years’ expenses, how long can we afford to live? I’m asking it this way because a friend of mine, who Sharon will know, was going on about financial planning is little good if you don’t know when you’re going to die. I turned it around and said: “but they can tell you how long you can afford to live”. If they said I could afford to live until I was 70, or maybe 110, it would change our spending.
