Definition
Innovation can be defined simply as a “new idea, device or method”. However innovation is often also viewed as the application of better solutions that meet new requirements, unarticulated needs, or existing market needs. Such innovation takes place through the provision of more-effective products, processes, services, technologies or business models that are made available to markets, governments and society. The term “innovation” can be defined as something original and more effective. Source: Wikipedia

Having worked in a customer service role for 10 plus years and Education for 10 years, inspired by our children, Thomas and Jacob, Nick and I incorporated Jacob Thomas Associates in 2007 to provide a workplace that develops all.
The team are a delight to work alongside and would probably say that I am focused, driven and determined with high expectations, however, has a good, maybe dry sense of humour, is supportive, encouraging and always needs a cup of tea in hand.
I love the outdoors so gardening and hiking are a passion. Before the big “50” I would like to complete the coast to coast walk, following Wainwrights footsteps. I enjoy researching the history, culture and differing architecture of the countries I visit whilst travelling. For relaxation, reading a good book or watching the latest box office movie is a must and ‘if the hips allow’ a jolly good boogie.
Jacob Thomas Associates has just turned fourteen and it is a constant delight to look back over the years in recognition of all the great work that the business has achieved for all those it has touched. We have assisted countless people and businesses to achieve their goals, whether this has been on a temporary basis, or assisting with their next long term career or workforce planning strategy.
The years have taught us that our most valuable asset is our Team, who are now shaping the future of the business and in whom we have complete confidence. Their ability to rise to any challenge has far surpassed the owners expectations allowing us to strategically plan for the future. Since inception, we have always believed that we are ‘working towards a brighter future’, and fourteen years on, this is still our vision.
As owners, our mission for the people within the Jacob Thomas Family is simple, create leaders, fulfil their ambitions and have fun whilst doing it!
I commenced working for Jacob Thomas Associates in June 2015 and have always enjoyed the variety of what each day brings within my role. The time invested and training provided has set me up to be successful in providing expert customer service and ability to create recruitment solutions for the industrial and commercial businesses across the country.
During 2020 we weathered the storm of COVID 19 and have come back stronger than ever. From the first instance of COVID being a threat to businesses across the country it was clear that our customers needed an extra level of support and reassurance. We are proof of standing firm throughout and we are proud to continue to operate with a strong team driven to provide the best service to our new and existing customers.
Our values remain the same, ensuring we are contactable 24/7 and to maintain the outstanding service which has ensured our continued success. Working towards a brighter future for us and our customers is our passion.
When I’m not head down focussing on the next customer to serve I spend the rest of my time with my Fiancé Sarah and our three children Noah, Barney and Blossom. Avid Leicester City fan, petrol head and live music fan.
