GeoSmart apprentice succeeds in becoming company’s future Business Administrator

Posted on March 24th 2022 in Blog

GeoSmart apprentice Jasmine Spender-Jones has been appointed the position of Business Administrator, a role she will undertake once her apprenticeship concludes this Summer.

Jasmine began her apprenticeship with GeoSmart in April 2021 after enrolling through a scheme provided by Shrewsbury College.

Martin Lucass, GeoSmart’s commercial director and Jasmine’s line manager, said:

“Since Jasmine joined us a year ago, she has been a fantastic addition to our team. She is now responsible for our business administration and has become an important part of the sales team, communicating with our existing clients and bringing in new customers.

Answering questions on her apprenticeship experience with GeoSmart, Jasmine also revealed how the position has changed the future of her career path.

"During the conveyancing process for my current house purchase, I was extremely concerned to find the general search results revealed the house was at 'moderate risk of groundwater flooding'. I was unable to get any further information from anyone until I contacted GeoSmart. The staff I spoke to were friendly, helpful, efficient and extremely knowledgeable. The information provided was very site specific and focused. The staff member who talked me through the information and maps provided was very knowledgeable, answered all my questions and allowed me plenty of time to discuss issues. Thanks to GeoSmart for their great service."
