Sam Scothern - Commercial Account Handler

Winner of the Nottingham Chartered Insurance Institute 'Young Achiever of the Year Award' in 2006

A brief run down of you relevant history of employment and experience

I joined Firth & Scott in 2003 straight from school at the age of 15. I started as the Office Junior and went to Babington Business College to train on day release. I then worked my way up to the personal lines team and became the youngest person in the country to pass the insurance industry Cert CII qualification. I was also awarded the 'Young Achiever of the Year Award' in 2006 by the Nottingham Chartered Insurance Institute. I then moved to the commercial team in September 2009 and specialise in Property Owners insurance and mid to High net worth personal insurances.

Your hobbies, pastimes, interests, leisure activities etc.

Shopping, shopping and more shopping. I love to pamper myself and take great pride in my appearance. I enjoy foreign travel and have been on holiday to Las Vegas for the last two years. I also look forward to going out at the weekend with my friends to party after a hard week's work. I love my Volkswagen Beetle but I am hoping one day to get a Range Rover.

If you could have lunch with anyone, who would you like to have lunch with?

Katie Price.  I enjoy reading her books and find her life fascinating.
