Melbourne Cup
The Beaumont team enjoyed the frivolity of the Melbourne Cup recently with a trip to the Randwick races. There was a great deal of simulated whipping and shouting when the big race arrived and a few of us displayed an eye for picking a winner.
Pictured (left to right) are Debbie, our Office Manager, Leanne Wells our Life Insurance and Superannuation Consultant and Kathryn Young, Senior Banking & Finance Consultant. What a fine selection of glamorous fillies ….Nay!
Proud as punch!
Fame at last for our Senior Banking & Finance Consultant Kathryn Young.
Kathryn was selected out of literally thousands of Recruitments Consultants Australia wide to speak to over 200 of her peers at the RCSA breakfast last week. As one of the most successful and well respected recruitment consultants, Kathryn was asked to talk about what makes a successful Consultant and what the future holds for our industry.
Well done Kath, what an accolade to be asked to share your wisdom with your peers, we are all very proud of you.
