As Head of Digital, Beth not only assembled but also led a high-performing and motivated Digital team while also ensuring their wellbeing - both collectively and individually. She radiates positivity and values each and every team member and the contribution they make, fostering a culture of continuous learning. In my opinion, one of her biggest strengths is in building culture and team cohesion. Amidst the challenges of the pandemic, Beth proactively introduced new strategies to keep our team engaged, motivated and effective in the transition to remote work. We benefitted from active Slack groups, regular team check-ins, organised games and social time, team-building activities and externally led courses where we collectively learned new skills, tools and methodologies. Beth is also adept at working with other leaders to get things done. She is able to advocate for the team and get other senior leaders on board, bringing them along for the journey. Under her leadership, Tearfund's digital capabilities have experienced significant growth, including the introduction of new disciplines and the expansion of existing ones in both capacity and expertise. We've seen the adoption of agile ways of working and the introduction of sprints. Additionally, she led a successful, large-scale replatforming and rebranding project which spanned multiple websites and transformed Tearfund’s online presence. No matter the project or the organisational change happening, Beth has navigated it all with great skill and care. She's an outstanding digital leader and I am certain she would excel at leading any team she's tasked with.", and "Beth is a fantastic digital leader, and it was a joy to have her as my line manager at Tearfund. As Head of Digital she advocated for innovation and the progression of digital maturity across the organisation, while also supporting the personal and professional development of her team.
