Monica Madeley, Projects and Engagement Officer
It is with some sadness that we congratulate our longstanding Executive Director Jennifer Summerton on her new role with Wonkhe as their Operations Director.
Jen was the first Executive Director for HESPA and takes a great deal of personal credit for the growth and development of HESPA since its inception. We wish her well in her new role and congratulate both her and Wonkhe on this excellent appointment. Jen has been a key player in the development of HESPA into the well-known and respected sector organisation it has become, welcoming and supporting both to members and partners alike.
She leaves the role at the end of April, after ten and a half years at HESPA. While we will miss her, we will be seeking to fill the Executive Director role with someone who can help HESPA push into the next phase of its development, as a member-led body with significant influence in our sector.
