As we continue to celebrate our 25th Anniversary, we wanted to spotlight one of our dedicated team members, Nicola Patterson, who has been with us for 19 of those wonderful years. 🎉

 

Nicola has shared her thoughts on her time with Bedspace:

 

"I have worked for Bedspace for 19 years in October and over the years, I have seen Bedspace evolve and expand, and I have had the privilege to grow alongside it. When I started with the company, I was part time in the role of Services Administrator. Nick, Chris & Jim provided me with numerous opportunities for professional development, I have worked in Accounts, HR, Payroll and Housing and I have completed the following qualifications – CIPD Certificate Level 3 in Human Resource Practice & CIH Level 3 in Housing Practice. 

 

One of the most rewarding aspects at Bedspace has been the people I have worked with. I have formed lasting relationships with colleagues across various departments. Together, we navigated challenges, celebrated successes, and supported each other. When I used to do payroll, we had around 67 employees! Now we have over 300 in our team!  

 

As I reflect on my 19 years with Bedspace, I am filled with gratitude. The experiences, knowledge, and relationships I have gained are invaluable. The company has not only shaped my professional path but also contributed significantly to my personal growth. I am proud to be a part of Bedspace and to have contributed to its success. Looking ahead, I am excited about the future, both for myself and the company. I am confident that Bedspace will continue to thrive and make a positive impact, and I am eager to see what the next chapter holds!"
