Why did you take the plunge?
I started my business following redundancy from a role that I loved, so trying to build a positive from a very tough situation.
What were you doing before you took the plunge?
I’d always worked in-house in HR within the technology sector and had been very lucky to work for inspiring, innovative companies including Wolfson Microelectronics, a spin out from Edinburgh University which designed audio chips for Apple’s first iPod products. I went on to work for other founder-led software companies, building and leading their HR functions from scratch. I realised there was a growing market for this as an outsourced service which I felt well placed to address.
