Summary
People Partner with experience supporting growing organisations through change, strengthening leadership capability and creating positive colleague experiences. I partner with managers to build inclusive, high-performing teams, combining strategic thinking with a practical, hands-on approach across employee relations, talent acquisition, engagement, performance and organisational development.
At KnowledgeBrief, I rebuilt the Talent Acquisition function, reduced time-to-hire from 41 to 26 days, increased employee engagement (eNPS) from 46 to 86 and supported growth from 30 to 80+ colleagues across the organisation. Alongside my HR career, I am undertaking postgraduate training in Counselling & Psychotherapy, further strengthening my coaching skills, emotional intelligence and understanding of human behaviour.
