À propos de cet audio
In this episode I sit down with Helen Burns — Global Talent Director at Owkin — to trace her truly non-linear journey: from freelance consulting and contract roles to leading talent acquisition at a cutting-edge AI/biotech firm. Helen shares how her background working across different sectors and countries taught her to value adaptability, curiosity and human connection above all, and how those qualities help her build resilient, human-centred talent strategies in a fast-changing industry.
We dive into themes of lifelong learning, embracing uncertainty, and the role of transferable skills in redefining career paths. Helen also opens up about navigating imposter syndrome, the importance of employer value propositions, and why building company culture now matters more than ever. Her story is a reminder that careers don’t need to follow a straight line — and that sometimes curiosity and courage can lead you exactly where you belong.
