Meet Steph Bennett: UBC’s New Business Centre Manager in Cirencester

We are delighted to introduce Steph Bennett, the new Business Centre Manager at UBC Cirencester. Steph brings with her a wealth of experience, a passion for people, and a remarkable ability to thrive under pressure: qualities that align perfectly with the UBC ethos of providing exceptional service and supportive workspaces.

From Ireland to Cirencester

Originally from Ireland, Steph left home at 18 to study in Manchester, a move that marked the beginning of a lifelong adventure in the UK. While she’s built her career and raised her family here, her ties to Ireland remain strong thanks to her “enormous family” back home, whom she visits frequently.

A Life Well Travelled

Steph’s career has taken her far and wide, offering her the opportunity to travel extensively, a chapter of her professional life that has given her a broad perspective and an appreciation for working with people from all walks of life.

Life Outside of Work

When she’s not managing the busy operations of UBC Cirencester, Steph enjoys hiking, preferably somewhere “up a mountain”, hosting lively dinner parties, and keeping a keen eye on current affairs and politics. Her love of the outdoors and social gatherings reflects her energetic and community-focused nature.

What Matters Most

Steph describes her core values as:

  • Kindness

  • Nurturing

  • Strength

These values underpin her approach to leadership and customer service. She credits her family as her greatest inspiration, driving her to maintain high standards both personally and professionally.

Strengths and Aspirations

A natural problem solver, Steph thrives under pressure: a strength that will no doubt serve her well in her role at UBC. She is focused on ensuring competency and success in every aspect of centre management. Looking ahead, Steph is committed to developing her role, delivering outstanding service to clients, and contributing to the continued success of UBC Cirencester.

A Warm Welcome

We’re thrilled to welcome Steph to the UBC family. Whether you’re a current client or considering joining our Cirencester community, be sure to pop in and say hello. You’ll be greeted by a manager who embodies professionalism, warmth, and an unwavering commitment to client success.
