Rosemary has over 30 years’ experience of working in a wide variety of international industries where she has held Head of Reward positions - oil & Gas (Texaco), container shipping & logistics (P&O Nedlloyd), luxury retail (Burberry), financial services (Legal & General) and she currently is Group Head of Reward for the global professional recruiting company Hays.

Following the financial crisis in 2008/9 and the focus on executive remuneration, she was invited to be a member of the Financial Reporting Labs set up by the Financial Reporting Council (“FRC”) and commissioned by the Department of Business Innovation & Skills (“BIS”) to look at how the Single Figure of Remuneration should be measured.

She is a member of the Government's Money Advice Service Steering Committee charged with increasing the financial capability of working people across the UK and chairs the sub-committee tasked with looking at the potential of introducing a UK “Financial Fitness Charter”.

She is also a co-opted member of the Remuneration Committee for the London Metropolitan University.

In 2018, she was recognised by the Reward & Employee Benefits Association (‘REBA’) by winning the REBA Vanguard Award for her work across her career in promoting and recognising the importance of employee wellbeing.

In September 2018 her first book will be published called “What’s Your Excuse for Not Getting Your Dream Job?”

She regularly speaks on the value of employee “wellbeing”, especially employee financial confidence, and emphasises the importance of bringing employee benefits to life. She is particularly interested in how employee benefits need to evolve to meet new social and economic pressures on employees.

Outside of work she is mum to two “Millennial” children and so has first hand experience of the challenges they face.
