Just to confuse you, there are now two Rachel/Rachael’s at Verner Wheelock – Rachel Coote, who is our Marketing Manager, and Rachael Breckon (left), who joined us in December as our Training Support Administrator.
Rachael has plenty of experience in the training and education sector. Before accepting the position at Verner Wheelock she worked in Central Admissions at Craven College, where she was involved in processing applications and advising prospective students and parents on available funding.
Rachael is a local lass. She lives in Skipton , with her boyfriend, Jonathan, and is already very much part of the team. She has already taken our Level 3 HACCP course and achieved a Distinction!
We asked her:
