Ben Duffy vital stats Company: Outokumpu Stainless Age: 20 University: Sheffield Hallam

“I am Ben Duffy, a 20 year young male and I am currently studying at Sheffield Hallam University in which I am studying for BA Hons in business studies and I am now in the 3rd year of study which is my placement year. My placement for this year of study is at Outokumpu Stainless (No 1 In Stainless) which is based in Finland, Sweden, Holland, England, Germany. I am at the distribution offices in England based in Sheffield, (at which point I stopped living the student life and moved home) I must say I am an upcoming, fast moving stainless steel executive. My role in this placement so far is to basically sell the steel to the willing and also the unwilling, which is proving quite intriguing.

I have currently have been here 2 months and have many highs and lows whilst I’ve been here already. And whilst enjoying one of my vending machine lunches I came across this website and thought why not give this a go. So this could be the first of many blogs, so look forward to highs, lows, happy times and sad times, maybe surprising times. Who knows until we cross these bridges.”
