Jodie is an Early Careers Talent Acquisition Partner at IPG Health Medical Communications, involved in the full delivery of our entry-level assessment centres, from advertising through to selection. Jodie works closely with the team to streamline the application process, with an EDI lens, to level the playing field for all applicants. Jodie also plans their entry-level outreach strategy, partnering with universities and community partners.
Chartered occupational psychologist with a breadth of experience in developing and implementing assessment, selection and development solutions. I provide consultancy support to both test publishers and to businesses looking to introduce products and solutions to enhance their selection and development capability.
My experience has given me the opportunity to work in, and with, a wide variety of organisations ensuring that the solutions they deploy are the best fit for them. This may mean advising a client to use an off the shelf product and supporting them in its usage through to developing a one-off bespoke assessment/development initiative.
My pragmatic yet professional approach has ensured that the solutions I provide are effective, efficient and timely. I have successfully managed a large number of multi-disciplinary projects from start to finish and have often worked closely with IT, marketing and HR teams to ensure a joined up approach.
From initial job analysis through competency development and product/assessment design and validation, I ensure my clients receive a solution that is a true reflection of their wider needs, not simply a short-term fix to an immediate problem.
More recently I have trained as an integrative psychotherapist. I run a small private practice in Derbyshire.
As a Senior Partnerships Manager at IHR – In-house Recruitment, I work closely with founders and leaders of recruitment suppliers to provide them with access to the largest and most inclusive community of in-house recruiters in the UK. I help them identify and showcase their solutions to over 20,000 members who benefit from our live and virtual events, digital content, forums, and directories. With 15 years of overall experience in business development, operations, and consultancy, I have a track record of delivering strategic and commercial outcomes for multiple industries, such as motion picture, hospitality, digital marketing, and video streaming. I enjoy building long-term relationships with clients and partners, and finding innovative ways to grow their businesses and markets.
