What do you do?
In a nutshell, I provide people management advice, support and guidance to line managers to help them to manage the Midlands and West division, and contribute to the formation of people management policies and guidance at a national level.
I have personally found working for the NSPCC a very rewarding experience. Throughout my time with the organisation, I have been able to develop my skills and knowledge in a relatively safe and supportive environment and feel valued in terms of the indirect contribution I make in terms of the organisation’s overall aim of ending child cruelty.
Why did you join the NSPCC?
I came from a HR administrative role based in further education and joined the NSPCC in 1999. The NSPCC held appeal for me because of its reputation nationally as a leading children’s charity. It had an image as a professional, dynamic, forward-thinking organisation with very high standards of practice, not only in terms of its main focus around child protection but also around its HR practice. I also perceived the organisation as being supportive of its staff in terms of personal and career development.
What benefits are there?
As stated before, I feel valued in terms of the indirect contribution I make towards the NSPCC’s overall aim of ending cruelty to children. The organisation is also strong around encouraging personal and career development.
What do you find rewarding about your job?
I enjoy the fact that my role offers me variety and regular challenges in terms of what I am asked to do on a day-to-day basis.
What values do you feel are important for working with the NSPCC?
In terms of NSPCC’s values and behaviours, I would highlight “working together” and “diversity” as being two of the key attributes that it is important to have when working for the organisation.
