Jacob Smith

I am a driven and determined individual. Currently working as an AAT apprentice with HW Fisher. Previously I have completed A-levels in History, Economics and Physical Education at The Coopers Company’ and Coborn School. I am very fortunate to have such a great opportunity with regards to my apprenticeship, I continue to work diligently with the aim of progressing my career within the financial services industry. I have developed skills of Leadership, Teamwork and Commitment whilst playing Rugby League at a part time professional level for London Broncos' U18/19s Academy. I continue to refine these skills amongst many others in the business environment through my apprenticeship and have done prior to this during various work experience opportunities within Barclays Bank. I have had an interest in pursuing a career within financial services since I began studying economics, this has only snowballed following various work experience opportunities within the financial services industry. I believe that the skills that I have developed whilst playing elite level sport and refined within a business setting will enable me to thrive in the high stakes environment that characterises our industry.
