Prosple Profiles

One thing that drew me to applying for the graduate programme at Contact is that they offer specialised work in some very unique places. For me, the ability to live in Central Otago on the Clutha River comes with the benefits of skiing, biking, surfing, hiking, all in some very sweet scenery. 

Some of the most important skills are being able to get on with people, a hunger to learn and being open to new experiences.

Contact ticked all the boxes: sustainability as its core focus, commitment to community, work flexibility, and caring for their people.

The Programme was filled to the brim with courses, events and other opportunities for learning. Knowing that I had backing and help from my supervisors and team members meant that I felt more confident to push myself and try new tasks.

Make time for yourself. Your own happiness and wellbeing should come first and foremost. Always make time to relax and do something you enjoy no matter how busy you are.
