Jean joined Spirit in March 2018, from the corporate sector. With a background in event management, Jean was responsible for EDF Energy’s B2B sector related events spanning educational workshops to conferences and corporate hospitality. She led sustainability roadshows at the Paralympic Training Camp at Bath University and was instrumental in setting up EDF Energy’s B2B Hospitality Programme, experiencing first-hand the “Spirit” of the London 2012 Olympic Games.

Joining Spirit has fulfilled her desire to transition into the Charity sector – “I wanted to work on projects that made real impact, that made a difference to people’s lives. Here at Spirit our funding makes that happen, I’ve come across so many fabulous projects that make dreams reality, and that’s what counts”.
