Frances Harber - Director of Global Office Management at Controlant shares her experience of working at Controlant.
I feel my confidence has really been lifted working here with having a boss who really just believes in me and uplifts me because I haven't found that a very evident thing in some companies.
I started at Controlant and two years ago as office manager and today I am the Director of Global Office Management and I love working here. A typical day for me could be anywhere in the world and depending where we are currently building offices and a very big part of my role is being a caretaker. So it's very important for us to have comfortable work areas.
I love coming in to see all the people having their coffee comfortably in the morning. People feel they've come to a soft landing when they arrive at work and this is very important to us. But I also feel I've been entrusted to be a connector as well. And I feel this is a skill that I've honed through my life, but I've never really been able to put a name to it or use it in things that I've done.
But I feel with control it's a very much part of my day to day job and I feel my hard work has really been recognized and I've never experienced this in any other company and I didn't take it for granted. And I'm forever grateful for.
