1. How did you first learn about TBAC?

I discovered an ad on indeed.com and I went and viewed the website for TBAC and said WOW! This job ticks all my boxes. I felt so lucky to be offered an interview let alone being offered the job. I’m very thankful and excited to have the position.

2. Why did you want to work for TBAC?

Last year I had a gap year abroad in Australia and New Zealand and experienced a variety of adrenaline packed adventures which included; riding motorbikes on the east coast of OZ, 4x4 driving on Fraser Island and extreme water rafting.I’ve always been trying to find a challenge in my life to do things to the extreme especially when I competed across the country on my own horses in cross country and showjumping.

So to answer your question I wanted to work here so I can help others achieve adventures of a life time like I have.

3. What is your role?

TBAC have offered me the opportunity to be their travel administrator on an apprenticeship so I can learn as much as possible and hopefully continue with the company for many years to come.

4. Before working at TBAC what was the most unusual or interesting job you’ve ever had?

It’s not really a job, but once I was on a television series called ‘Duck quacks don’t echo’ which was a comedy show that tested science theories. The episode I was on was the theory if red heads could tolerate more pain. Well...they tested us alright! Challenge 1- Electrocution (had to wear an electrocution device on my stomach) and had to stand the pain as long as possible. Challenge 2- Freezing temperatures- Had to go into an iced over swimming pool and see how long you can stand it for. Challenge 3- Being pelted in the back by a tennis ball machine and stepping closer if you can face the pain (lovely close up reaction of me in that one!)

12. Top 3 life highlights?

When I got my first horse he was so cheeky and fun I’ll always class him as my bestfriend because he made me so happy.
