Stuart Mather, 35, is currently community relations manager at Capital One.

He started in January 2000 in the main call centre, having previously worked in telesales for other firms.

"I did that for about a year," he recalls. "And I found I had this knack for spotting dodgy applications, so I went to work for the fraud team. I found it all so interesting.

"By then, the company had become the main sponsor for Forest and I was such a big fan, so this was huge for me. One of the employee benefits was an allocation of tickets for staff and families. Each area had a 'Forest champion' to organise that, and that was my role. I really enjoyed it and got into organising events for the club and even had a regular spot in the Forest programme interviewing players.

"Working with Forest became my full-time role about six years ago, which I loved. We did a lot of community giveaways and events and my responsibilities became more and more to do that kind of thing and generate publicity.

"It's flown by since I started working here. My role just evolves all the time and now as community relationship manager I love it. I still have a lot of employee engagement, organising the festival and the Christmas do.

"Some people might think we are spoiled here with so much great stuff. And I do feel really privileged to work here. But we work hard too."
