Simon is an interior designer and founder of Design Career Consulting. A graduate of Interior Design from Nottingham Trent University, Simon has consulted on the production of projects across a variety of creative disciplines.
He‘s gained his working knowledge and experience through employment with several leading architectural and interior design practices in London and his role within recruitment has helped people to establish and develop their career paths across all areas of Interior Design.
I spoke to Simon via Zoom in Autumn 2020.
In this episode, we discover the importance of collaboration and why you should build a network of contacts.
How a career in design helped shape his expertise in recruitment.
How communication can help break down prejudice and encourage inclusion and team cohesion.
And why it's good to walk the streets with a pack of postcards.
