Thank you, Beth Broughton, for sharing your experiences, thoughts and insights with us in our fourth interview in the series. In the interview, Beth, UK HR manager at Heras, shares her transformative journey as an HR professional, exploring pivotal moments that shaped her career. Beth reflects on the crucial role of supportive management in breaking down HR barriers and gaining a seat at the decision-making table. She says, "Without the full support of a manager who believed in the importance of HR, I'd always be trying to break down barriers that wouldn't want to come down." Beth emphasises the evolution of HR's role, touching on attracting and retaining talent, the significance of a robust employee value proposition (EVP), and the importance of having a multifaceted approach to workplace wellbeing. Beth also addresses the intersection of data analytics, upskilling, and the delicate balance between industry developments, personal growth, and employee wellbeing.
