John:
“I consider myself very lucky to have enjoyed an interesting, varied and at times a very challenging working career. After serving 14 years in the RAF as an electronics engineer I joined South Yorkshire Police in 1996. During the next 21 years I served in a variety of uniform departments and decided to leave after serving my last four years as a custody sergeant at Doncaster.
My big passion is travelling and after trips to Oman, Hong Kong and Vietnam I decided to seek work that would both compliment my lifestyle whilst offering certain challenges. I very nearly entered teaching in 1996 and decided that my life and work experiences would enable me to make a positive contribution in the classroom environment.
Teaching Personnel have made everything easy for me. After attending an interview, I was able to discuss my working needs and expectations and have never looked back. I have a dedicated specialist consultant at Teaching Personnel who contacts me regarding current working assignments, provides feedback and discusses any upcoming working assignments. I can work as little or as often as I like and for me this arrangement is perfect.”
