Tom Clements

Recently completed my Postgraduate studies, completing the course in January 2024 in Management, Finance and Accounting. Outside of my education, I have developed an interest and understanding in financial markets through trading currencies, commodities and cryptocurrencies. I would consider myself to be an outgoing character, who thrives off socialising with my friends. I have found football to provide me with many opportunities to communicate with a wide variety of teams and players at different levels. Through my footballing career, I have found a passion for competition and leadership, both skills I mirror in my day to day life. Football has allowed me gain experience within renowned organisations, such as: Aston Villa, Coventry City, Northampton Town, Leicester City and Manchester United.

Employment History
