Kerri began her HR career working for BAE Systems as a HR Adviser for 12 years, partnering with various business areas including Manufacturing and Eurofighter project. Kerri gained a broad range of generalist HR and project experience during this time as well as expertise in the design and delivery of bespoke learning and development solutions.
Kerri then moved into a new BAE Systems joint venture company to establish a centralised HR Shared Service Centre. Working as an Operations Manager in the Colleague Contact Centre, Kerri developed a passion for HR shared services (HRSS) and business improvement projects, which she has continued to enjoy throughout her career.
Kerri then took a leap of faith and moved with her young family to rural France where she established a small gite management and property maintenance business, returning to the UK after 3 years to take up a HRSS business efficiency role with M&S.
Over her 5 years with M&S, Kerri undertook various management roles as part of a major HR transformation project which included the delivery of a new business wide people system and the centralisation of HR services from retail stores into HRSS. Her responsibilities included business change and communications, management of an operational service delivery team and the delivery of a number of bespoke learning and development solutions.
Kerri’s next move was to Manchester Airport Group (MAG) where she headed up the HR Service Centre during the implementation of a new ERP system. She also led on the transition of the HR service from Stansted Airport into the centralised HRSS in Manchester.
Kerri then joined AO in a consultancy role leading on another HR transformation project, before joining MYHR in 2020 alongside consultancy roles at Slater+Gordon and Wokingham Borough Council.
Kerri is CIPD qualified, Agile Project Management Certified and an Accredited Mediator.
