About

Born and bred in Sussex, I love living on the coast and indeed need to in order to navigate.

HR Professional working in the Trading Division of a Charity.  I work with the retail management team supporting the shops in the south, as well as undertaking projects that include the whole shop network.  I support managers and volunteers, working on all the issues that can arise from retail and volunteering sectors including :

• Employee Relations
• Change Management
• Volunteer Management & Recruitment
• Employee Engagement
• Staff Recruitment and Assessment
• Diversity
• Learning & Development
• Data Protection

I juggle my role (which I love) with being a Mum of two (son and daughter), daughter (to four parents), Sister and a wonderful set of friends and (hugely socially active) neighbours.

My interests surround HR, Volunteering, Third Sector, general Geekdom and work life balance.

I welcome your comments to what I have to say and any advice/guidance on this blogging thing as it is all new and a wee bit scary.
