Corporate Escapology
13. Meet Katie Elliott: HR Hub builder - Corporate Escapology the Podcast
The Corporate Escapology podcast is here to show you pathways that others have trodden to leave their corporate job and do something more fulfilling, purposeful and rewarding. Like Katie is doing.
Katie worked for more than 15 years in HR as a generalist, a pretty reductive word for what in fact means she has an awful lot of experience and knowledge. She worked for smaller businesses and scale-ups where she had to tackle the full range of HR issues. But after COVID, when she'd managed perfectly fine working from him, her company wanted her back in the office - Katie said "No, I'm off".
She left to become a freelancer, but what's more interesting is how she's packaging up her incredible knowledge into the HR Hub - a subscription service offering templates, tools, policies, guides (and an hour a month on Zoom) - everything a startup/scaleup needs to keep on the right side of the law and do well by its people. Katie gets the flexibility she wants for her young family and commercialises all that knowhow.
