Alexis started at the City of London 12 years ago as a co-op student at the Housing Access Centre, and currently holds the position as the Recreation Systems Coordinator. Read what she has to say! “My favourite project I’ve helped with is the implementation of Xplor Recreation, we were switching away from CLASS which was a very, very old piece of software and launched ourselves into the modern era. I strongly believe that the skills I learned during the yearlong implementation process are what helped me get the job I am working now. I love that every day in my current role is different, I get to problem solve and provide important suggestions and improvements to better our customer’s experience when registering for recreational programs.” Are you interested in growing your career with the City of London?
