RPA in Training
Laurie Jaye
From a young age I have always been interested in the application of science to the world of animals. I graduated from Harper Adams University in 2019 after studying FdSc Animal Management and Welfare. Post-graduating, I entered the field of the life sciences sector as a laboratory technologist, going on to achieve a Home Office license within my three-and-a-half-year career. Whilst working in this role, I began to miss the client/customer facing interactions I experienced in previous industries I had worked within, including pet retail, hospitality, and other customer-facing roles.
I thoroughly enjoy meeting new people and volunteering where I can. During sixth form in 2013 I participated in a conservation expedition in South Africa with fellow students. I also volunteered to be a course representative for my cohort year and student ambassador, providing advice and support to prospective students. My love for helping people fuelled me to enter a new role in 2022 in the care sector as a domiciliary carer.
When I discovered the niche area of radiation protection with Stephen Green and Associates, I was instantly intrigued by the specific application of radiation to an array of professions I would never have imagined, alongside veterinary. As the newest member of the wonderful SG&A team, I am very excited to begin a new chapter as a Radiation Protection Advisor in training, and to build new and trusting rapports with our unique clients in this specialised industry.
Outside of work, I enjoy strength training and fitness, cooking, motorcycle riding and exploring new areas of the country either through free time or work. As an animal lover I jump when any opportunity arises to spend time with them! Although currently I am unable to have a dog due to work commitments and lifestyle, I am hopeful for the future to eventually have one as my walking companion.
