The 100th blog celebrating women in public service
Siobhan has been curating the 100 years, 100 women blog series as part of the cross-government centenary celebrations but has avoided writing one herself...until now!
Rebecca Humphreys - the woman who is not defined by one characteristic
Mother, wife, daughter, working professional, student, lover of Irregular Choice shoes and pasionate about history. As Rebecca says, no single one of these points defines her, yet each one make her who she is.
Bea Morgan - the woman who wrote the History of Women in the Civil Service
Bea is an absolute star, whose drive and interest lead her to the Civil Service and to write the research paper "The History of Women in the Civil Service". The paper is a must read, fascinating insight into how life and attitudes have changed over a relatively short period.
Karen Campbell-White - the woman who loves laughing and organising!
Karen has a busy role at the Competition and Markets Authority, which hopefully gives her the perfect balance between her favourite past times of laughing and organising!
Jess Roberts - the woman with a passion for domestic history
Jess is one of those lucky Civil Servants whose academic interests have fed directly into a fascinating career as a Historic Reviewer. Her research into women in domestic service has fed her interests in marginal or outcast groups in women’s history.
Gillian Whitworth - the woman driven by her belief in justice and equality
Gillian is relatively new to the Civil Service but is making the most of her ambition and drive to make an impact already. She is clearly passionate about equality and we know she will go far!
Sunitha Chacko - the woman who likes questioning things
Sunitha likes asking questions and that's probably what has led her to her working in the Government Digital Service. She is also a strong advocate for equality and explains the importance of equal representation of women in executive roles.
Fay Hickman - the woman balancing motherhood, Civil Service and her own company!
One job is not enough for Fay, who also runs a business selling handmade nursery décor which she set up whilst on maternity leave!
Jacky Wright - the woman helping people believe in ‘the art of the possible’
Chief Digital and Information Officer Jacky takes an empowering approach to leadership, and endeavours to create a culture that attracts, retains and nurtures people from all backgrounds.
