Our speaker lineup so far
More speakers will be announced over the coming weeks.
Christine Robinson
Christine Robinson is the Strategic Advisor at Dayshape and was formerly at EY and Baker Tilly.
Returning as Elevate host for the third consecutive year, Christine is one of the most respected voices in resource management globally. As former Managing Director and Head of RM at BakerTilly, founder of Resource Management In The Wild, and President of the Resource Management Executive Forum, she brings rare depth to the room - practitioner credibility, strategic perspective, and the ability to connect conversations across the full day.
Russ Girling
Russ Girling is the Resource Management Director at S&W. Russ’s journey into Resource Management is anything but typical. After 16 years in the UK Armed Forces HR Department, he moved into the world of recruitment with the aim of supporting Service Leavers—which eventually led him into the world of Resource Management where he has worked in a variety of roles across PwC, EY, and now he is leading the Resourcing team at S&W.
He’s passionate about making change happen in ways that actually work for people. Whether it’s rolling out new systems, rethinking how teams operate, or mentoring future Resourcing leaders, Russell brings a mix of strategic thinking, curiosity, and a people-first mindset to everything he does.
If you’re interested in how Resource Management can evolve to meet today’s challenges or interested in what this could mean for your own career and how you bring the two together —this session could be for you
