Foundation Interns Sadie & Kitty followed up their hugely successful interview with Charli XCX and her management team by interviewing OS Craig Beaumont (MJH, SuH, 86-93), Chief of External Affairs at the Federation of Small Businesses.
Despite having to conduct the interview off campus, Kitty and Sadie, were consumate professionals and enjoyed a wonderful conversation with Craig about his time at the College and his Higher Education and Career journey beyond.
Craig has enjoyed a fascinating political career since leaving the College working in 10 Downing Street, on the London Olympics and more recently as Head of External Affairs at the Federation of Small Businesses. During the covid pandemic he has been making regular appearances on the news lobbying on behalf of the thousands of adversely affected small businesses in the UK.
Craig spoke animatedly in response to Kitty and Sadie's thought provoking questions and provided the valuable advice to them and their fellow Sixth Formers to find their passion in life and grab every opportunity presented to them as it is never known where it could lead.
