Stephen - Duty Manager

Before pursuing the support of Croydon Works, Stephen had been actively seeking work for 10 months with no success. Starting as a seasonal temp with Argos, Stephen has now been promoted to a duty manager – Well done Stephen!

“I was new to the Croydon area and was unsure of the best places to seek work and the best people to approach, then I heard about Croydon Works through local advertising. Gurvinder (Job Brokerage Team Leader) was able to guide me on how best to change my CV to stand out and within one week of my first meeting with the team, I had been lined up a successful interview with Argos for a seasonal Sales Assistant role.

Within 6 months, I have been promoted to a Duty Manager, meaning I now have been able to move my family into a bigger home which is more suitable to our needs. To anyone looking to use Croydon Works, definitely do it!”
