What made you choose Arbtech?
I joined the 2024 internship after five or so years in the arb world.
It’s a company that puts a lot of time and effort into the wellbeing and education of the people who work there, and it’s a great place to start or – in my case – pick back up where I left off after some years outside of the ecology world.
What do you love most about the company?
The people I work with.
At their very core, every single person I work with is kind, supportive and willing to help guide and teach to ensure you’re on the right track.
The gym contribution isn’t bad either!
What do you do when you are not in Arbtech?
I’m one of those people that has a new hobby every week. But I also love to get out and explore with my dog, go to gigs, garden, keep carnivorous plants, and collect old books on natural history.
And when I’m completely exhausted, you’ll find me playing video games and watching horror films.
What is the biggest tip to achieve the most in life?
Other than being kind and patient to those around you…ignore the voice in your head that says:
- You are not good enough
And
- Other people don’t think you’re good enough
It’s not something I have got down yet, but I’m working on it!
What is the best social you’ve been on at Arbtech?
I went to a lovely barbecue with my southern eco pals recently.
I’m looking forward to many more company meetups in the future – especially the Christmas party!
Where do you want to travel to next?
I would like to go back to rural Transylvania.
It’s one of my favourite places in the world!
Where do you see yourself in 5 years time?
I honestly have no idea, but hopefully still here at Arbtech.
When it comes to my own life, I’m not much of a planner.
What is a goal you have for the future, in or out of work?
I’d love to eventually be qualified to be a hybrid.
Coming from an arb background, I miss working with trees and would love to get back there eventually.
My out-of-work goals are very focused on buying a house and getting married to my partner, and not necessarily in that order either.
The ultimate goal is to finally get myself a horse.
Becks joined Arbtech in October 2024.
