“I’m the founder and COO of Jump, where I lead product development, strategy and fundraising. Previous to founding Jump, I worked in Venture Capital, investing in Series A+ marketplaces at Piton Capital, and at McKinsey on Strategy and Private Equity projects. I have an MSc. in Sociology and a B.A. in Economics & Management from Oxford, where I did my thesis on the impact of social network structure on job performance. I’m passionate about people problems, and believe we should use the power of data for good. I’m excited to make a positive contribution to the world and solve real- life people problems at Jump.
I’m always happy to participate in speaking events, provide infomormal career advice and contribute to articles, as long as I feel I can add a unique point of view to the discussion.
Jump is a people analytics platform that gives everyone a chance to succeed. By understanding what makes people unique and linking this to business outcomes, Jump gives more personalised job recommendations to professionals, in turn attracting much better job applications to businesses. Win: win for both!”
