Colin was made redundant during the 'lockdown', what he did next was brilliant.  

He took to LinkedIn, he let his network know that he was available and looking for a job, he posted content that highlighted his skill-set and experience and what he is good at with a sprinkling of his own genuine light-hearted humour.  

The result was fantastic, people engaged in his content, they 'liked' it, commented and shared it....including myself! I wanted to help him too.   

He was then approached by an employer who'd seen his content, invited him in for interview and he got the job!   

Listen to our chat on how Colin did this, his tips of do's and dont's.  I hope you enjoy it and that some of you are able to take some inspiration away from it during this tough time.

Cheers,

Claudio.

This week's chat is an eye-opener into Technology within the Property and FM sector....also known as PropTech.   

Mike is a Hard FM Consultant and has his finger on the pulse with how tech will change things in the Property and FM sector....but it also seems like the FM industry is already not keeping up with these impending changes.  

Mike was a great guest, he's so knowledgeable on the industry as a whole and how tech being introduced will change things. 

What could this mean to the FM industry? 

Listen to our chat to find out.

In this week's The FM Channel Podcast, I catch up with Dominic Ponniah on how he too 'fell into FM', has always had a passion for a greener environment, which has helped him not only build an award winning business.....but also win a Green Blue Peter Badge when he was younger!   

Dominic was great, very laid back and inspirational.  

I hope you enjoy this episode of The FM Channel.

Hollie was great, very chatty, full of energy and clearly loves what she does.  We had a great chat about how she has worked on the Service Provider and Property Management side of FM and now she is working in-house!   

She talks about making those transitions and how managing a service charge 'is' possible if you haven't done it before.  

She also gives her advice to anyone looking to get into the FM industry.

In this week's The FM Channel Podcast, I talk with Netza Jack - Technical Manager at the FA on how he's been super busy upgrading some of Wembley Stadium's technology during the lockdown.  

I hope you enjoy it, if you do, please 'like', share and subscribe for more future episodes.

Had a fantastic 15 minute chat with Steve Sheckley about how he coped with being in between jobs at the start of the 'Lockdown' and as the pandemic got worse, found himself with no new role, no furlough option and a very quiet job market!  

We discuss what he did to keep physically and mentally healthy and how he also helped a friend who was suffering from being 'locked-down'.
