Simon Ambrose - LASEK
Profile: Highly
competitive, proud and ambitious, Simon can speak six different
languages and says he achieves his best work under pressure. He was
made redundant from his last job as an investment banker, and has
since tried his hand at a number of internet-based, entrepreneurial
ideas. He'll stop at nothing to get what he wants; he once booked a
table for 10 at a top celebrity eatery by posing as a Manchester
United football agent.
His first job was assisting in a
discount jewellery shop where he was trained to differentiate
between real and fake diamonds by judging their weight in carats –
a skill he still has. At university Simon tried his has hand at
acting and even performed at the famous Cambridge Footlights. He
enjoys yachting, karate and kite boarding.
He says: "I don’t like to do things by half and
needing only to wear one contact lens was quite problematic for me
especially as I enjoy sports. As soon as I was of age to have laser
eye treatment and my eyes stabilised I decided to have the
treatment in 2002. It has been the best decision I have made and
definitely gave me more confidence - which you saw on The
Apprentice.
On winning The Apprentice: “My Dad bought me an Amstrad PC when I was six
and I learned how to program it. I still have it. I deserve to be
here and I guess my life has come full circle. Now I am working for
Sir Alan - it's a dream come true.”
