Danielle Bennett, Primary School Teacher – “My best thing about teaching was actually being with the children. I loved being with kids I always have. I just loved seeing them learn, seeing them progress and knowing that you’ve kind of had an impact on their lives. When I first started Utility Warehouse, I was part -time teaching. It worked really well for me because then I was able to work Utility Warehouse around my school hours and around Theo.”
Sarah Riley, Secondary School Teacher – “Joining this business from a background in teaching, there are clearly a lot of transferable skills. Mindset of really good teachers is always a mindset of growth, nurturing and encouraging people to, might I say, step out of the comfort zone. In terms of tangible things, yes, it’s ticked all sorts of boxes financially. I’ve significantly improved my financial situation, definitely. Funding my daughters through private boarding school, help them with things like university, teaching them to drive, buying them a little car. Time freedom, I’ve definitely got that now. I can do whatever I want. But the other thing that’s really important to me is location freedom. My background as a geographer, I love just going to lots of different places, so it’s given me that location freedom. And I now am in a position where I have a sort of millionaire lifestyle in terms of the time and choices. And I can do exactly what I want whenever I want and that is priceless, absolutely priceless.”
Rhodri Taylor, Secondary & Further Education Teacher – “I think the beauty of this business is you can work it around your life to suit your goals. Part -time, full -time, any time, it’s your choice. I would say I’m far better off financially now than I was at teaching. As a teacher I was at the top of the pay scale, which was not bad and obviously I had lots of holidays. But now I’m my own boss.”
