About
I am a People & Culture Director with over seven years' progression at Iglu.com — from building the recruitment function from scratch, through Head of Talent and Head of People and Culture, to Director level today. I own the full people agenda, including HR, talent, learning and development, employee relations, comms & engagement and facilities, reporting directly to the COO. I was a key part of the deal-readiness team for the business' recent sale, owning due diligence workstreams and presenting directly to the acquirer's leadership. I have led the organisation through two major transformations — COVID-era restructuring followed by a deliberate, sustainable rebuild, and more recently post-acquisition integration — while building the evidence-based systems to run people decisions on data rather than instinct: a Skills Framework, a Career Pathways model, a reformed promotion process, an Employee Value Proposition, and a live employee sentiment programme. I also hold Board-level accountability for DEI and ESG governance.
