Why BEC?
I’ve never worked anywhere like BEC, everything is focused on making a real difference within our local community and it’s incredible to be part of the team. I particularly enjoy working to protect our natural environment and increasing biodiversity. My role requires collaboration both internally and externally across a wide variety of organisations and charities to delivery our purpose – collaboration is absolutely key! Working at Westlakes is also a huge benefit, where else would I spot a pine marten on my afternoon break! For me BEC equals Brilliant, Effective and Compassionate.
