In this first episode I talk to Michelle Gyimah mum of two and living with her partner and children in Valencia. We talk about how having her first child was the catalyst for taking control of her future to enable the flexibility needed when juggling the logistics of a young family.

Michelle is the Director of Equality Pays, a gender equality consultancy dedicated to closing workplace pay gaps.

With UK gender pay gap reporting regulation in force, possible ethnicity pay gap reporting and a workplace talent shortage looming, redressing inequalities in the workplace is more important than ever.

Michelle’s unique understanding of employee engagement and workplace challenges enables her to embed practical application into her consultancy.

In addition to working with employers, Michelle is also a passionate advocate for enabling women to get equal pay and close their pay gaps. She does this by supporting their equal pay investigations and teaching women workplace negotiation skills to allow them to get more of what they want.

Michelle has over 10 years’ experience of working at the Equality and Human Rights Commission and holds a Masters in Human Rights from The University of Manchester.

Michelle is a regular contributor to numerous national business magazines, international conferences and lives in Manchester, UK.
