Meet Casey Newton

What did you want to be when growing up?

The stereotypical dream job would be a professional football player but that quickly diminished when I couldn’t even make my school team. I always liked the idea of being a policeman/detective but on reflection, it would be slightly less interesting in Jersey and I value sleep too much to do night shifts.

What does your weekend look like?

I like keeping as active as I can over the weekend. I play for a local football team and regularly go to the gym. The remaining hours normally consist of revising for my next exam. (No I wasn’t told to say that)

What do you enjoy about working at Hawksford?

I joined Hawksford as a school leaver and since the first day, everyone has been very supportive,  friendly and helpful which has really helped me progress over the 4 years I've been here, whether that was my career development or external training.

What one piece of advice would you tell your younger self?

This is quite a tricky question; I wouldn’t give myself any advice, experience and mistakes are a good way to learn.

If you could live anywhere in the world, money being no object, where would you live and why?

I’m not a very travelled person, so I’m going to have to give a boring answer by sticking to my routes and staying in Jersey. 

Would you rather live somewhere where it snowed every day or somewhere where it never rained?

I would have to say never rained as I don’t own a waterproof jacket or a jacket with a hood.
