Career Insights – Rhiannon Leighton, Democratic Services Assistant, Cambridgeshire County Council

It’s time for some more Careers Insights with Cambridge Ahead!

This week we hear from Rhiannon Leighton, Democratic Services Assistant at Cambridgeshire County Council. Rhiannon tells us how her career fulfils a desire to make a difference to social inequalities, and how the skills she learnt by doing her A-levels and by going to university played a massive part in helping her with her future role. 

In the words of Rhiannon: “Do the things you love, as those experiences will help you get to where you want to be.” 

 

Form the Future is delighted to support this project. We help young people find their route through education into employment, and what better way to do so than to showcase the world of career possibilities here on our doorstep in Cambridge. Information about the world of work, and the range of pathways and opportunities, strengthen young peoples’ capacity to make informed decisions and positive transitions. Ultimately, Form the Future is about inspiring and enabling young people to think about and plan their next step. 

Cambridge Ahead is passionate about the importance of young people getting the best possible education about career opportunities available to them, and highlighting the various pathways they can take into work. In order to support this objective, raise career aspirations and broaden horizons for young people, Cambridge Ahead has produced this series of videos for use in schools and colleges across the region and beyond.
