Throughout March, here at UCAS we’ll be celebrating International Women's Day 2024 and Women’s History Month. ♀️ To mark the occasion, we asked our people to nominate inspiring women they have worked with across UCAS who have aided this year’s theme of #inspireinclusion, and we will be sharing their profiles over the coming weeks. Our new CEO, Dr Jo Saxton has said: "I’m honoured to be celebrating the fantastic women we have working here at UCAS. 50% of our leadership team are women, and I’m so proud that we have role models in leadership positions across all aspects of our organisation including technology, digital, marketing, and sales. It is wonderful to recognise so many remarkable people who have played pivotal roles in UCAS’ progression and have continued to foster a sense of inclusion within both our internal and external community." First up is Kim Eccleston, Head of Strategy and Reform at UCAS. Kim joined us in 2020 as a Customer Adoption Lead, and since then has established herself as a compassionate leader who encourages collaborative discussions and has helped to make UCAS a more inclusive organisation. 👏
