Robert Rennie
Robert is an Office Manager for FCA Eastern. He has worked for FCA and Core Assets since 2004.
As an Office Manager, Robert supervises and supports 5 Administrators from the 5 Eastern regions in which FCA is based. He is responsible for Health and Safety, carer check reports as well as a variety of administrative and managerial roles, from attending national meetings to reconciling petty cash flow.
Disability in the workplace
Of all the strands of diversity supported within FCA and Core Assets, Robert identifies with disability;
“In 1983 I was involved in a serious road traffic accident when a horse trailer became detached from a car and knocked me down; I was travelling home from work on my moped. I was in Intensive Care for 3 months and in hospital for a total of 10 months. As a result of this accident I have been left with a disability, as my legs were badly damaged.
“I have never experienced negativity about my disability at work, but if I did I know I would be able to speak to the person concerned and I would be comfortable to bring it to the attention of my line manager. Core Assets is full of positive role models, and I truly believe it has taken forward working with the different diversities.”
