Her tasks will include overseeing BM’s training calendar, course creation and workshop delivery, developing BM’s learning management system further and measuring progress across key deliverables.
As part of her role, Casey will establish the agenda for a focus group on disability in the workplace and drive diversity education across the wider WSH parent group. Casey has been with BM since 2019 in an operational support capacity.
Casey previously spent three years at workplace caterer Gather & Gather as a multi-site general manager, overseeing four coffee shops, three cafés/delis and a restaurant and managing around 80 staff, catering for more than 4,000 people as part of the business’ Vodafone headquarters contract.
Commenting on her appointment, Casey said: “I’m really passionate about giving people opportunities to grow and develop, as well as supporting talent, potential and growth. Times have changed and it is companies that are having to sell themselves to potential talent – and rightly so.
“This enhanced focus on learning and development put us in a healthier position against our competitors, making us more desirable to potential clients and creating a culture where our teams know they are supported.
“With a young generation of individuals keener than ever to understand what a company can offer when it comes to training and development, my role could not have come at a better time. The investment in a dedicated lead on L&D is a significant change underlining the importance we place on our team’s growth and development.”
