THOMAS MUIR

Stow

Summary

Motivated young man in his twenties looking to develop a sturdy foundation of work experience particularly in the Insurance industry. Driven by the idea of working initially as an underwriter, insurance calls out to me as a somewhere I’d thrive as a trustworthy people person. Open and curious to explore any opportunities to build a professional base whilst earning money in breaks from study.
