At MagnetIX, our journey began with Michelle, a seasoned expert with over two decades of experience in People, HR, Recruitment, and Coaching. Michelle’s career, spanning both in-house and agency roles, has been fueled by a deep passion for brands and storytelling. Her work has allowed her to partner with some of the world’s most iconic brands & visionary Founders.Throughout her career, Michelle has played a pivotal role in recruiting, training, & developing thousands of individuals. Most notably, she was instrumental in building one of Steven Bartlett's companies from the ground up. Through these experiences, Michelle uncovered a profound truth: despite achieving traditional markers of success like promotions, money, and status, many people still feel unfulfilled.Michelle has spent years consulting and coaching professionals who, even after reaching their "big goals," found that success alone wasn't as satisfying as they had anticipated. This realization led her to delve deeper into what truly brings happiness and purpose to people's lives, both in her own journey and in the lives of others.At MagnetIX, we believe in the power of finding careers that not only fulfill individuals but also allow them to grow and be their authentic selves. Michelle is dedicated to helping people unlock their potential. She challenges professionals to reflect: If your current career doesn’t ignite your passion, what could you achieve if you directed that energy toward something you truly believe in? The possibilities are transformative.Our mission at MagnetIX extends beyond individual career fulfillment. We partner with businesses to help them find top talent who not only have the right skills but also share a common mission and values. We believe that when talent aligns with a company’s vision, the result is a more engaged, motivated, and successful workforce. This alignment is essential for companies aiming to foster innovation and drive meaningful impact in their industries.
