The Young Professionals Podcast (TYPP), proudly brought to you by ADAPT Careers (https://adaptcareers.com.au) and co-hosted by Luke Marriott and Nicholas Sargeant (Sarge).
In this episode Luke and Sarge interview Hugh Beard who is a Product Delivery Coach at Xero (https://www.xero.com/au/), a leading provider of accounting solutions for small businesses. Hugh’s first piece of industry education was growing up within a small business family where he witnessed first hand a successful entrepreneurial story, but also the sacrifices that requires.
Hugh completed a Bachelor of Business (Marketing) at Swinburne University of Technology (https://www.swinburne.edu.au/). Not knowing what path to take, Hugh moved to the US where he worked a number of jobs including at Apple (https://www.apple.com/au/) as a technology support member and then a Manager of the Tech Support section of the Apple Fifth Avenue in NYC.
Upon moving back to Australia, Hugh joined SEEK (https://www.seek.com.au/) working across customer support and then data analysis within SEEK’s Artificial Intelligence and Platform Services team.
Looking to shift into more strategy focused work, Hugh completed his Masters of Business Administration (MBA) at Monash University (https://www.monash.edu/). After completing his MBA, Hugh moved into consulting where he worked at Neu21 (https://www.neu21.com/), a small boutique consulting firm, before moving to his current role as a Product Delivery Coach at Xero (https://www.xero.com/au/).
