My name is Serena Hylands. I have worked for CTS for 9 years. I am the Director of Business Development and I am responsible for IT, Health & Safety and Procurement within the business.
I completed a Law Degree (LLB) at Queens University in 2005. I worked in a local solicitor firm in Newry and gained invaluable experience of professional legal life. I was awarded a place at the Institute of Professional Legal Studies in 2009 and I qualified as a solicitor in 2011. Due to a downturn in legal work, I found myself looking for a new opportunity / challenge which is when I began to work for CTS. I worked on securing new contracts, gaining ISO company accreditations, and advancing IT practices within the business. Throughout my years at CTS I also gained my NEBOSH qualification in Health & Safety, ISO internal auditor qualification, NEC 3 & 4 accreditations and a Diploma in Business Management.
