Kirstin Bamford | Account Executive

I’ve always loved sports, growing up a keen runner and also competing internationally in three-day eventing (horse riding). I later shifted my focus to competing in both triathlon and cycling. When a friend told me about her internship with a company that works with the world’s leading cycling brands, that seemed like the dream!

I studied law at Edinburgh University before completing my two-year training contract at a prestigious private-client law firm. Once qualified as a solicitor, I knew I wanted to pursue a career I was truly passionate about. I reached out to SHIFT and was delighted to join the Account Management team in January 2023!

I never thought I’d find a job where “work” doesn’t actually feel like “work” and where I'm surrounded by such an inspiring group of people - creative, dynamic and ultimately fun.

I feel fortunate to be in an industry engaging with some amazing clients and colleagues whilst learning from the wealth of knowledge each unique individual brings. I’m excited to continue being challenged each day and having the privilege of working a job that I’m passionate about.
