Welcome to Sit Down with RHS - a podcast from the Royal Hospital School where we bring to life how the school makes a unique impact on young people's lives.
In this series, we're sitting down with members of the alumni to hear how RHS set them up for success - and not just on the academic side, but the full range of life skills, confidence and resilience to thrive and follow their ambitions.
We're hearing from a whole range of different members of the alumni. We've heard from an athlete, a singer and actress, an artist, a para-olympian, an environmental engineer, and we've got a whole lot more wonderful people to come.
Today, we're sitting down with Jack Beamen, tech entrepreneur, angel investor and CEO at Indeed Flex. Jack left RHS in 2005, went on to work at a startup, and then used that experience to start a new business in the temporary staffing sector. We hear what Jack most enjoyed about his time at RHS, particularly why it was the ideal environment to flex his entrepreneurial muscles. This is a particularly interesting discussion for any aspiring entrepreneurs out there.
