Our Careers

Jack Leach

Joined WCCTV: 2019
Placement Role: Business Development Executive 
Current Role: Regional Account Manager

Why did you do a placement year?

I knew that undertaking a placement year from university would give me a good insight into the world of work, and help boost my experience and career prospects moving forwards.

I basically wanted to have a good understanding of what working life was like before graduating.

Why did you choose WCCTV?

I chose WCCTV because I had seen the case studies from other student placements on the Company's website, and it was reassuring to hear that there were lots of progression opportunities with the Company. 

A lot of previous students had returned back to WCCTV after graduating and had progressed rapidly through the business as it was growing.

I didn't want to just do a placement year and leave, so that was what really appealed. 

What did you enjoy most about your placement year?

The most enjoyable thing for me was getting to see how the business operates as a whole, and how the sales function directly links to all other departments. 

I was able to interact with people in several other departments, rather than just having a static role in one area of the Company. It gave me a real appreciation of how important the sales function is, and how it feeds into every element of the Company. 

How did WCCTV support you as a placement student and beyond?

While I was on my placement year it was made very clear to me that if I worked hard, and was successful that there were progression opportunities available.

I was offered a full-time job, so I knew that once I completed my degree I wouldn't have to worry about job seeking

Within a few months of taking up the position, I have already been promoted to Senior Business Development Executive, with the responsibility of training new members of the team and acting as a mentor for their development. 

Would you recommend WCCTV to other students?

Yes, absolutely 100%. During your placement year you'll get quality training, support and a variety of responsibilities, and on top of that there's a genuine opportunity to stay and progress within the business.
