"I have been with Skybound for 15 years and have enjoyed a variety of roles within the company. Skybound invest in their employees as they actively encourage staff to study and sit relevant qualifications. On a personal note, Skybound have been really supportive with my work life balance, as I am now a mother of two and they give me some flexibility with my work so I can achieve great results at work whilst raising a young family."
