Tina Phillips
Head of People and Talent in London, United Kingdom
A true all-rounder with considerable experience in a number of areas - I've worked in people operations, talent aquisition, events, broadcasting, and marketing.
I've always had a particular soft spot for start-ups. Founder of a few music and event start-ups earlier on in my career, I have been immersed in the London tech scene for the last 10 years, working at TechHub London, Citymapper and Kayako.
Currently, I'm heading People & Talent function at UK's 6th fastest growing startup, Paddle.
I'm a strong believer in company culture and have always believed it’s critical to build real relationships with colleagues, clients and delivery partners in order to provide for an effective environment that enables growth. I have strong presentation skills and plentiful experience in public speaking.
A strategist and implementer, I thrive in stimulating environments and am probably best known for 'making things happen'. I’m a problem solver who loves to plan, deliver and manage both projects and teams - often simultaneously. Able to deliver large programmes with limited resources, I handle accounts, relationships and partnerships with equal ease. I thrive in roles that require leadership and excel at getting things running and off the ground from the get-go.
As a trained radio and TV broadcaster I also work as a freelance VO artist on occasion - my client portfolio includes Adidas, Nivea, Mercedes Benz, Vodafone, Labelo, Renault and many others.
