Having studied in the tech space and seeing first-hand the gender in balance in female students, I’ve been passionate about driving change in the tech industry and empowering females to pursue their dreams in the tech space for many years.
I head up the Experienced Hires team at Experian, leading permanent technical recruitment across the UKI and some global regions for various roles including software engineering, devops, infrastructure, cybersecurity, and AI/ML/Data Science, in addition to being a hands-on recruiter.
A key part of my role I enjoy is continually identifying opportunities to innovate our recruitment processes and hiring approach to build and develop diverse teams, and work in collaboration with the HR teams and hiring managers in the UK and the global TA teams.
In addition to my role, I’m one of the Committee Leads for our Women in Experian employee resource network and have a great opportunity to partner with some fantastic women in the committee to support and empower women across the company through webinars, internal events or sharing articles, career stories and podcasts. I’m also contacted for a confidential chat in which I aim to give employees the confidence to believe in themselves and ideas on how to navigate challenges. I’m also an ally to the other Employee Networks in Experian and promote and support their networks too.
Outside of work, I love to read, dance, travel but lots of time is also spent being an Uber mum! I’m also learning how to code in Python which is quite exciting.
