Alison Ettridge

Chief Believer (CEO)

Alison is our CEO and Chief Believer -  living the entrepreneurs dream! Alison loves helping HR Directors take data and insight to the Board to validate their views;  helping them to convince their leaders (turning them into Believers!). Alison has spent twenty plus years in the world of people and talent – from her first job (with our colleague Dom as her boss!) in executive recruitment, to sales at monster.com and then into the world of talent research and intelligence, which was where she spotted the opportunity for Stratigens – to bridge the gap between strategy and execution with data.

Alison enjoys leading the amazing TI team who all have a passion to change the way people view the workforce and workplace. Her passion is knowing that we are genuinely driving change in our clients' organisations for the better and doing it with data. The team all have curious minds and Alison loves the challenge that brings. Alison is in charge of bringing us all on the journey from start up to small business and now scaling, helping us to understand what's changing and what matters – and coupling this with the importance of remembering why we're doing this (the Belief thing just won't go away).

When she’s not leading the charge at TI, Alison has the most gorgeous (and patient) husband and an amazing little girl and a variety of different four-legged creatures who keep her busy. Weekends are spent on the back of a horse or hauling a fat pony with a child on around!

Nathan Baranowski

Head of Making Magic Happen through Tech (CTO)

Alan Glass

Chief Money Manager (COO)

Alan is our COO. He loves the challenge of creating a successful business from just an idea. He’s been instrumental in taking the Stratigens concept, producing plans, getting it funded, building the team and then delivering on the plan to create a global scale up business. At Talent Intuition, Alan is in charge of giving us budgets, support and guidance to make things happen so that the team can grow and develop without being micro-managed.

Alan’s background is in engineering consultancy which is took on straight after graduation, followed by 30 years in the software and services sector in various management, consultancy and founder roles. Most recently, Alan was the co-founder and MD of an IT services business which later floated on the AIM market. When he’s not creating value for Talent Intuition, he enjoys time socialising with family and friends, sport, and of course as our COO, keeping up to speed on current affairs.

Chance Wilson

Head of Sales and Business Development

Chance is leading the charge on demonstrating the power of strategic talent intelligence to large scale enterprise clients. He loves taking his audience on a journey of enlightenment and revelation towards the insights and intelligence that Stratigens can yield. His mission is to help companies mitigate risks, costs and bad decision making associated with ambiguous information as a result of poor data.

Before joining the Talent Intuition team, Chance worked in the Middle East for 10 years where he held roles in HR transformation in-house, as a consultant and as an advisor to Boards.  His passion for data and intelligence in his military and commercial roles have shaped his professional direction of travel and he says it feels inevitable that he’s now found himself in a role using insight from data to help companies operate more strategically.

Chance relishes the opportunity to broaden the horizons of more organisations to gain valuable insights in a disconnected and fractured global workplace. Chance’s passion is supporting globally admired brands as a trusted advisor, enabling organisations to harness the intelligence and create order from chaos in the internal and external landscapes in which they operate.

When he’s not busy creating value for Talent Intuition’s clients, employees and investors, Chance can be found competing, volunteering and judging at equestrian competitions. 

Myles Elder

Business Development Manager

Myles’ role is to help organisations to join the dots between people and strategy. He’s passionate about educating stakeholders on the value of data and how it can benefit their business through Stratigens. His ambition is grow with Talent intuition and to support the business in becoming the leading player in this space.

After seeing the innovative progression of Stratigens, and the passion of our CEO Alison, he thought it would be crazy not to join such a fantastic team! Myles loves speaking to potential clients who get excited about developing their talent processes and he loves the opportunity to perform a demonstration of our platform.

Myles landed in the labour market analytics industry by chance. After studying law at university, he joined a company that combined HR strategy with software solutions. He absolutely loved this concept which is what brought him to Talent Intuition.

Before Joining us, Myles worked for several organisations, selling consulting services and HR software. Myles is a DDI trained facilitator and has delivered leadership development training to c-suite and executive board members.

Laura Turner

Head of our Client Friends & Deliverers

Laura joined Talent Intuition as a consultant and researcher. She enjoys being part of TI because of our culture of innovation - that we’re always to do things better and that we practice a lot of what we preach in that we have a very open, flexible working culture.  We push ourselves to provide excellence to our clients whilst respecting that we all have a life outside of work.

Laura’s career started in executive search, straight out of university, before she moved into broader talent intelligence consulting. Laura’s professional passion is helping to answer big people questions. She truly believes that there is nothing our research team can’t answer if we ask the right people the right questions. When Laura’s not connecting and engaging with executive talent for our clients, she spends as much time outdoors as possible: running, dog walking, and exploring the world through the eyes of her toddler, Callen.

Lina Shulman

Hands on Data, Head in the clouds

Lina is our chief problem solver and data scientist. She studied mathematics and statistics at university but only really found herself when she discovered data science. Lina joined Talent Intuition because she enjoys seeing how a single question can unfold into thousands of possibilities and later emerges into single solution – which is exactly the process we go through for our clients. As she says, the single or perfect solution doesn’t always look so perfect if you see it from a different angle which is why we need data science, and why so often, one question leads to another.

At Talent Intuition Lina’s passion is applying her AI models to some really difficult problems. Outside work Lina can be found making model airplanes with her son or debating interesting topics and making travel plans for exciting destinations with her daughter. Lina also loves reading and films and loves to get lost in Utopian and fantasy worlds as complete relaxation from work.

Joanne Rogers

Head of Making Noise

Jo leads our marketing efforts and is in charge of making as much noise about TI as possible. Jo has worked with Talent Intuition since 2016 and has enjoyed being on the journey so far having worked with Alison in previous roles and watched TI and Stratigens since their very beginnings. Jo’s background is in professional services and business to business marketing.

Before arriving back in the UK in 2015, Jo worked for Hay Group as Head of Marketing for the Middle East and was based in Dubai for seven years. Her professional passions are great content and great marketing tech. When she’s not making noise about TI, Jo loves competing with her horse, walking her terrier and tinkering with Land Rovers.

Sarah has two teenage children and enjoys spending time with her family.

Kelly Berryman

Head of Paying Money

Kelly has known our CEO, Alison, for a long time and has watched the business flourish. She sees Alison’s passion reflected in the whole team and the work that comes from it, which is a real testament to our culture. Kelly’s role is to provide us with accurate financial information in a timely manner which helps us to make the correct business decisions. She loves supporting from the accountancy side to free up the rest of the team to focus on their own strengths.

Kelly qualified as a Chartered accountant in Bristol and then worked for an accountancy firm in Cheltenham before setting up her own business in Animal Care and assisting with organising horse events - which she still does alongside running her accountancy business!  Kelly has two dogs, Snoopy and Rupert, with whom she competes in agility classes, and she loves a long pub walk.
