Having founded two businesses and been instrumental in the success of several high profile employment projects, Jane is a highly regarded entrepreneur. She also is the current president of HR in Hospitality, a visiting fellow at two UK Universities and features on more than one ‘100 most influential’ listings.

Having realised that if someone could help companies to become a great place to work, there wouldn’t be such a crisis over ‘the talent war’, in September 2001, she founded Purple Cubed; enabling global clients to collectively save in excess of £10m per annum and was recently named CIPD HR Consultancy of the Year, Personnel Today HR Supplier of the Year and one of Inc’s European Fastest 5000 businesses.

In addition to It’s Never OK to Kiss The Interviewer, Jane also wrote HR ‘bible’ Purple your People: the secrets to inspired, happy, more profitable people (Crimson 2011), and in 2014 was chosen from over 1600 LID authors to contribute to 20/20 – 20 great lists by 20 outstanding business thinkers.

Like Jane’s writing, her presenting style is a lively and engaging presenter; simplifying the complex areas of employment and careers. She always offers practical and common sense with stories and examples that allow the audience to take away plenty of quick wins and ideas which get results for their businesses or careers.
