My position required me to work closely with Ministers, Senior Operational Leaders and external stakeholders to manage an effective scheme that would Chanel innovative experienced managers in to the prison service. I was tasked with creating a dynamic recruitment campaign that would generate interest across a broad spectrum of the population. The campaign itself was successfully launched from design to realisation in under 12 weeks and under budget. I was supported in this phenomenal endeavour by a strong relationship with our recruiters Havas People. The process of creation was second to none and embodied the innovation the prison service so desperately needed. The campaign received acclaim from internal and external parties with media acknowledgment and went on to win 5 industry awards including Campaign of the Year. The programme itself was fast paced to accelerate our talented candidates to their management positions but kept security and credibility at its forefront. It was my role to manage candidates in their placements across the estate and ensure that stakeholders across the breadth of the organisation were engaged with the intentions of the scheme and satisfied with the process.
