Today is my last day at @DfE_DigitalTech before starting as a Service Owner at DBT.

From bringing in 200+ digital specialists, running the DDaT leadership roadmap, DMing in Teachers, GovPaaS migration, to leading our RAAC user centred design delivery - it's been the best journey

[Katie Pether @KatiePether1]

Read this book 👏👏👏
@DrHannahBelcher you continue to share your gift and in doing so, make the world a much better place.

‘To unmask means to start practising being you again - the ‘you’ that wasn’t moulded to fit everyone else’s idea of you’ - @DrHannahBelcher.

A valuable book to explore what masking means for you. ✨

If I close my eyes, cross my fingers and count to 10.. will you just magically appear at stand up tomorrow @kiernan_alice? 🙏

I've spent the past few days interviewing people and it has reminded me of why I loved leading the @DfE_DigitalTech recruitment team.

There are so many small things we can do to turn a nerve wracking situation into a kinder, accessible experience for people.

[Katie Pether @KatiePether1]

I've been lucky enough to work with @vita_howes for the past three years.

Vita, you are an empathetic leader, a breaker of barriers, a great coach and an even better friend.

You are simply the best.

Go smash your new role 💪
