Show Notes

This is the most delightful chat with Judith Beck - I absolutely loved meeting and talking to Judith. Judith is a powerhouse and so knowledgable! I could have talked to Judith all day - she has so much wisdom to share!

Judith Beck had a stellar career in recruitment with Financial Recruitment Group, an executive search company she founded in 1995. Over her career, she has successfully placed thousands of candidates at senior to managing director level within the finance industry. What Judith learnt from recruitment led her to start Financial Executive Women (FEW) in 2013, an organisation that promotes the positive progression of women in the finance industry through experience, guidance and support. Judith passed the FEW business to the next generation in 2020 and her passion remains to ensure women have the right support systems to advance their careers.

Judith  says it’s time to stop gender holding you back at work, talks the top skills needed & key to overcoming barriers . Your gender shouldn’t define your success at work. It’s not about your sex, it’s about you and your ability to learn certain skills and behaviours to help you step up in your career.  

We talked recruitment and we had a great laugh about some of our experiences and stories! Judith is someone who generally wants to help people and leaders. Judith also shared some AMAZING tips on how to progress your career! I loved these suggestions and they are so so true!   

In her new book, No Sex at Work author and founder of Financial Executive Women, Judith Beck, provides a no-nonsense guide to career advancement and inspires you to see yourself as an individual not a gender. Drawing upon extensive experience as a leading recruiter in the financial services industry, Judith explains what the top 10 percent of high achievers do well, and how to increase your chances of success by eradicating the barriers holding you back.
