The work-life balance here allows me to have a fulfilling life outside of work while still thriving in my career.
How would you describe the culture at SHL?
SHL's culture is authentic, inclusive, supportive and welcoming. Diversity is embraced, ideas are valued, and people feel seen. I've been encouraged to seize opportunities, pursue ideas, and shape initiatives. Supportive managers have offered genuine listening and guidance, while mentors have shared insights, challenged my thinking, and enriched my journey.
What perks or benefits do you appreciate most?
Flexibility, hands down. As a parent of three young children, I’ve learned to embrace agility. The flexibility in my role, and the wider business culture, truly support this balance. The work-life balance here allows me to have a fulfilling life outside of work while still thriving in my career.
How has your career grown since you joined?
When I joined SHL 19 years ago, I was fresh out of university with a narrow academic understanding of Industrial Psychology. Since then, my career has evolved both vertically and laterally, shaped by the many transformations within the business. Some opportunities were ones I asked for and importantly, not all in the form of promotions; some were new responsibilities, fresh challenges, unfamiliar teams that stretched my capabilities.
How does your work make an impact?
The decisions I make, and the requests I champion, are always with the best interests of our business, our people, and our clients in mind. Every action we take for a client has ripple effects: it contributes to their success and touches the lives of individuals going through assessments, landing jobs, earning promotions - or gaining clarity through data-driven decisions.
