Faces behind the frog: Kim Anderson
16th March 2020
As part of our 'Faces behind the frog' blog post series, we talk to Kim about her role as an Area Manager and what Unifrog was like way back in 2015.
How long have you worked at Unifrog and what have been the biggest changes in that time?
I'm pretty old school at Unifrog, joining the company way back in 2015. I can remember the early days when we only had three tools. Unifrog is constantly developing and improving so there isn't just one big change. I guess the main change is that there’s now too many of us to all fit around one desk at Team Day!
What’s your favourite tool on the Unifrog platform?
It's like asking which is my favourite child! The UK university tool will always be a stand out winner, it never fails to impress people when they see it for the first time. It also makes me wonder how I made a decision on university back in the day, basing my decision purely on the pictures in prospectuses. Other than that the Subjects Library - in particular the 'Geek Out' section - as it’s jam-packed full of cool stuff. I would definitely have loved it as a student.
What part of your role do you find most challenging?
Getting hold of teachers! You guys are always so busy that trying to find time to speak to a teacher is like trying to pin down water.
What’s your favourite film and why?
Film would be my specialist subject on Mastermind. I'm such a geek - surely no-one can have a favourite? I probably have a favourite in every genre. Growing up with a big brother definitely formed my taste, starting with the Goonies, Rocky and Lethal Weapon (I didn't say it was good taste!). But now being a mum, you don't really get a say, although Moana and The Lego Batman Movie are actually surprisingly good.
