Sadly we said goodbye to Beth at the end of February 2022. Beth joined FSC UK in 2015 having trained in accountancy. Her first role was as Office Administrator, ensuring the smooth running of the busy FSC UK office. Beth then took on more responsibility for the organisation’s finances and became Finance and Administration Officer. Having shown an interest in and aptitude for supporting FSC promotional licence holders in their trademark use, Beth then joined the business team as Trademark and Finance Officer. We would like to thank Beth for all her hard work and wish her the very best of luck for the future.
