Global Digital Transformation Manager, Business Development, Renewables & Generation, UK at Hitachi ABB Power Grids
Based out of London, I work with my team in 19 countries throughout South Europe. I have been an energy sector executive for 20 years and continue to enjoy our ever-changing industry. I have 3 children, 11,17 & 20, and been a guest speaker for two classrooms. I found the key to engaging students is to have a two-way dialogue with plenty of pictures and several questions. I'd be happy to encourage young people in today's world to pursue a career in the energy sector. Thank you for your consideration, Jody

Speakers will ‘tell a story’ about their career journey from leaving school and what they are doing now:

• What inspired them to choose their career path
• Their failures, as well as successes
• What their company does and why this is important
• What they enjoy most about their career
