Lee McQueen beat 20,000 other hopefuls to win the fourth season of The Apprentice. He was hired by Lord Sugar, and became Director of Amscreen, which is the UK's largest digital signage company. With Lord Sugar’s blessing Lee has now left Amscreen and started his own business called ‘Raw Talent Academy’. The aim of Raw Talent Academy is to provide businesses with the opportunity to build internal sales academies into long term staffing plans. It encourages organisations to look at the wider talent in the UK.
Lee constantly demonstrates his desire and passion to succeed. When his parents split up as a teenager he had the courage to take on a mortgage at 18 and cope with two jobs to finance it. When other teenagers were having fun he was taking on responsibilities. Since taking part in The Apprentice he has stayed the pace in other ways and has found the time to take part in two half marathons and the London marathon (April 2009) – demonstrating once again his constant passion and desire to succeed.
He has ten years in IT Recruitment under his belt, six of which were with Capita Resourcing. After working his way through the business, Lee ended his career at Capita as the Sales and Delivery manager, heading up the IT recruitment division. When he left, the division turned over £32million and had around 30 staff, the majority were revenue generating. Lee also set up an academy within his division, designed to train and recruit staff with limited experience and turn them into fully fledged sales consultants deployed within the business. This and other experiences are the building blocks of the new venture.
Lee has the 3 Es; excellent, energetic and enthusiastic! He is used to the pressures of live events and brings out the best in those around him.
