After leaving universtiy Mhairi was unsure what she wanted to do. She knew she wanted to earn some money so decided to pursue a career in recruitment. After applying for a few positions she ended up working in the oil and gas market in Aberdeen.

\\n\\n

After this, she worked in the public sector and then for a sports nutrition company. After a few years in Recruitment, Mhairi decided it wasn\\u2019t for her anymore and she decided to move into another industry and went to work with her dad in construction.

\\n\\n

This industry proved not to be as fast-paced as Mhairi had hoped and Brexit affected the cost of materials so much so that Mhairi wanted something more exciting out of a career.

\\n\\n

She then moved to a small tech company working in Manchester city center as a salesperson. During her time there she moved into a Head of People position. There was no internal recruitment department so she set that up for them.

\\n\\n

After doing this the company had a vacant open on their development team for a project manager and she applied for it and Mhairi\\u2019s project management career took off from there.
