Recruitment Manager
Softcat

Elisha is an experienced Recruitment Manager, and has worked within the tech space for 10 years. Born and raised in Manchester by a single working mum, and with an innate and undeniable passion for people from day one, it was never going to be a big surprise when Lish ended up pursuing a career in Recruitment. In recent years, specifically since having had a baby of her own back in 2021 – now a tornado of a toddler named Max! – Lish’s passion for enabling others, and most specifically supporting women in business, has skyrocketed. One of Lish’s biggest loves in life is getting people excited about the things that she’s excited about, and right now, that thing is exploring the impact that strong and effective leadership can have on female empowerment in the workplace. Lish is testament to the fact that with the right leadership, the potential that we as women in business can realise is immeasurable; and she wants to talk about it!
