  • Enterprise Relationship Manager

    2013 - 2016

    As an Enterprise Relationship Manager, I helped large organisations across Australia navigate the world of social recruiting, from building employment brand to sourcing and retaining top talent. I represented the Australian enterprise segment in the APAC product Internal Advisory Group and I was a member of the Women @ LinkedIn leadership team, responsible for running Australia's mentoring circles program. I joined LinkedIn in 2013, originally as a Global Account Analyst working with LinkedIn’s global accounts to drive client success through data and analytics. In 2014, I worked with global and enterprise clients as a product specialist for LinkedIn's employment brand advertising solutions.
