Jayden Francis, Associate

Outside of work, Jayden’s greatest passion is football. He plays 11-a-side in a competitive Saturday league with a group of friends who have all grown up together and managed to be half-decent at football (emphasis on the half). Jayden also enjoys playing for the Avyse 5-a-side team and if anyone is up for a game, please let us know! When he’s not playing, he’s watching his beloved Arsenal at the Emirates stadium (though it's anyone's guess which of his teams will win a trophy next).

 Jayden does have other hobbies/interests (believe it or not). He values spending time with his friends and family, who are very important to him. He also enjoys attending concerts, working out at the gym and going on holiday.
