✨ Behind every success story is the support that made it possible.

At Pitman Training, we support our students at every stage of their journey.
From the first step to the moments they need guidance the most, our Learning Coaches are there to help them stay on track, build confidence, and keep moving forward.
For Isobel, that support played a key role, helping her turn ambition into real progress.

🏆 From kitchen shifts to a career in event management
At our Pitman Training Taunton centre,
Isobel Fitzgerald-Pollard didn’t change direction, she stepped up.
Already working in hospitality, she chose to build on that experience and completed her Events Management Diploma with distinction.
That’s where things shifted.
With the right structure, confidence, and practical skills, Isobel moved beyond day-to-day tasks into real responsibility.
Today, she’s part of the team at Junction 24 & Hawke Barn, helping deliver weddings and large-scale events, from planning through to ex*****on.
Out of 8,000+ graduates, Isobel was named Student of the Year 2025 🎉
Her employer calls her a “crucial member of the team” with a “can-do attitude”, someone who gets things done when it matters most.
👏 A huge congratulations to Isobel on this incredible achievement, a well-deserved recognition of her hard work, commitment, and growth.
