Before working with Compass in Aberdeen Allan worked and lived in Rio de Janeiro for 4 years as Key Account Manager for International Clients, learning to speak and understand Brazilian Portuguese, as 80% of the workforce and some client representatives did not speak English.
The front line teams were always confused when he spoke, as he learned his Portuguese in Rio, which gave him a Carioca accent, mixed with his North East of England accent, this amused them every time.
