About

I am a results-orientated Talent Acquisition Specialist with ten years’ experience working in technology recruitment. After starting my career on agency-side, I moved to leading fintech company Zopa, where I helped them scale in preparation to launch a bank by hiring within the Data, QA, Software Engineering and Product spaces. I joined Deliveroo as a Technical Recruiter in 2021, to lead hiring for its world-class Data Science and Analytics Engineering functions.
