Work Experience
Project Manager
Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE)• November 2021 - Present
Head of Operations
JesRose Ltd• January 2021 - November 2021
I joined Jes Rose on a full time basis as the first external employee, I'd taken on the operational side of the business to help build a solid foundation after the previous 15 months of strong growth. My role was spread across a number of areas including Technology, HR and Legal while maintaining the customer service functions. After I delivered a number of significant projects including new product launches, redesign of the ecommerce system and implementing a number of foundations for the business, I resumed my role as an Operations Consultant as my services were no longer required on a full time basis.
HR Systems and MI Adviser
Slaughter and May• June 2019 - January 2021
I’m a superuser in each of the key HR systems and maintain the day to day running of these, providing training and support for end-users as required. I also run a number of internal user groups to ensure that the systems are meeting the needs of our customers and plan for any new requirements as they develop. A key part of my role is specifying, designing, producing, analysing and reviewing HR management information, both ad-hoc and scheduled, covering headcount, diversity, overtime, retention/attrition, absence and more. Designed and delivered using tools such as Microsoft PowerBI, SQL, Crystal Reports or Business Objects. Additionally managing our 3rd party supplier relationships to get the best return for our systems investment, we plan, test and implement updates and functionality to improve the features and end-user experience for our internal customers. Keeping close management and tracking of the teams budget for annual renewals and system improvements, I create business cases to take to the board when exceptional requests are needed. We also support other systems within the business that use people information such as the Bowland 360 Review system and Everbridge Business Continuity system. Working closely with our Compliance Team, we have a focus on the data security of our systems and processes, ensuring strict compliance with the firm's ISO 27001 certification.
