This is the second in the series of How We Got Here, asking our colleagues what made them want to work in the Scottish justice sector. In this episode, we’re chatting to our Order for Lifelong Restriction (OLR) team. OLR Team Manager, Amanda, and OLR Lead, Heather, tell us about how they went from Spice Girls and Ally McBeal… to the Risk Management Authority.
We talk about what happens at the end of University, finding experience in different settings and the steps they took in their careers, to how time out and taking a step back can help give you perspective.
