Ellen’s background has primarily been working in mental health or in caring roles. 

Having started out in a caring profession, she has always felt a passion to help, support and care for people in whatever role she was in. 

Ellen has worked for charities, and taken on volunteer roles and after taking a year out to focus on her own well-being, she returned to a role in the private sector being employed by DPD as a well-being manager.

A role then followed at RSK, a sustainable engineering consultancy firm, where she was initially employed as the wellbeing manager but was swiftly promoted to the Wellbeing, Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Manager. Ellen is now responsible for ensuring fair treatment and opportunity across the globe for all RSK employees. 

In today’s podcast we discuss .

  • Equality, Diversity and Inclusion, Ellen explains what it is and how it creates a positive working environment, whilst supporting employee wellbeing.   
  • The unique challenges of having responsibility for the wellbeing of employees across 15 countries, maintaining inclusiveness across different cultures.  
  • The initiatives that RSK have specifically created to support EDI and wellbeing, including the creation of employee networks. How do they operate, what value do they bring and how do they relate to the 5 wellbeing pillars? 
  • The importance of holding employers accountable for new wellbeing initiatives, but at the same time being honest and clear with expectations. Also, how to maximise engagement of new initiatives.  
  • What the future looks like in terms of wellbeing in the workplace, both emotional and financial. 
  • Wellbeing strategies to support work/life balance and the necessity to take a pro-active approach.  
  • How to use data to create a business plan for a new wellbeing service or benefit. How to sell the potential value to senior management.
