Emma Illingworth
Before I tell you my credentials, let me tell you a bit about me. I’m Emma, I’m a mum, a dog mum and Captain of my local hockey team.
I joined as Trustee for Smart Works Leeds in Nov 2023. My role is to consider all things people - ensuring we have a team of people and volunteers, with the skills and motivation to support the work we do across Yorkshire.
I’m also part of OVO’s People Team, where our job is to curate a culture of world changers in a great place to work. I have 20+ years of experience, mainly in the energy sector and in my role, I often act as a playmaker to deliver the big and most challenging organisational change programmes across the business. I’m passionate about people and making a difference and promoting a culture of Belonging. I recently became a Governor at Huddersfield New College.
