Approach.
My passion is to empower our staff and inspire them to perform at the highest levels whilst also aligning them with the strategic aims and direction of the company. I have a very honest human-centred approach whereby I believe it is crucial for companies to appreciate that our staff are humans first and foremost.
I strongly believe in creating a working environment where staff can thrive and develop through coaching, mentoring, feedback, and continuous improvement. I am keen to ensure that our vision, mission, values, policies, and benefits packages consistently align with each other to set a clear goal for all of our staff to work towards.
Having always been interested in Law, it was inevitable that Olivia would end up working in a law firm. She studied Law and Business at both A-Levels and Undergraduate Degree Level and then discovered how she could utilise her legal skillset without being a Solicitor and apply it to the HR function. With a strong background in employee relations and a deep understanding of business operations, this combination not only utilises her strengths but also helps manage business risks by representing alternative perspectives.
Olivia graduated from Oxford Brookes University with joint honours in Law and Business with a determination to combine the two equally in her future career. After graduating, Olivia started working in the HR function in the elite professional sports industry at a Premier League Football Club. Olivia undertook her master’s degree in human resource management at the University of Brighton, where she graduated at the top of her class, obtaining two academic awards (CIPD and CMI) for her research projects.
Olivia has furthered her career and skillset in HR as well as in project management, sustainability, operations and strategic management across the world, including the UK, Belgium and Saudi Arabia. Olivia’s expertise is within start-up and growing organisations to align processes and procedures to elevate and professionalise operations across the company.
