Rae Harris, New Business and Sustainability Executive

WHAT DO YOU DO AT INDIGO SWAN?

I have been very fortunate to have worked in a number of different roles within the nest. I started within the Client Services Team and worked my way from Data Gathering to Case Management. I then went and worked within the Client Guides team as an Account Manager. Now, I have turned my hand to New Business within the Client Discovery Team! This exciting role enables me to reach out to new businesses to discuss all the amazing opportunities we have to offer and how we could work together in the future.

WHAT ARE YOU MOST PROUD OF?

My biggest challenge and proudest achievement to date, is single handily looking after and raising my beautiful daughter. She fills my world with stress and sunshine but I would not change it for the world. I am a very happy-go-lucky lady with a positive attitude and outlook on life, I believe that this shines through every day and helps with all of the challenges that come my way. When the going gets tough, I know that I have all of the support I could ever dream of from the Swans! What more could a girl ask for.

TELL US AN INTERESTING FACT?

I won an Art competition with the prize being that my work was exhibited in the Royal Academy of Arts in London.

HOW DID YOU GET HERE?

Before I joined the wonderful world of Indigo Swan, I was working for a Domiciliary Care Company covering all of Norwich. I spent my days completing all of the carer’s weekly rotas as the Care Coordinator and short care calls in the community. I loved the caring part of my role, as it was helping people in their daily lives and supporting in end of life care. What I really did not enjoy was working the 100 plus hours per week and it really was not a very caring environment to work in. Thankfully my world changed for the better, and I found my fabulous Indigo Swan job on Facebook!

WHAT MADE YOU CHOOSE YOUR HEADER IMAGE?

I was fortunate enough to grow up by the sea, it’s one of my happy places. I have spent so many hours of my life sat with friends on the beach watching nature at its finest. If you are happy or sad a little chat with the sea will always work wonders!
