The virtual Pocklington School Foundation (PSF) Careers & Business Network event is due to be held via MS Teams at 6.00pm on Thursday 29 September 2022. The focus for the event is ‘living and working overseas – international perspectives and cross-cultural communications’ and we are delighted to have Current Parent Emma Cazzalini, Head of Capability and People, Information and Digital Directorate with the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office.
Emma studied French with German at the University of Newcastle upon Tyne. In 1996, she joined the then Foreign and Commonwealth Office as a member of HM Diplomatic Service. During her career, Emma has served in the UK and overseas in a range of roles and through organisational and cultural change. She has a particular interest in organisational development. Emma has been posted to Rome, Paris, Brussels, and Warsaw and now works at the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office in a UK-based headquarters role.
Toby Seth, Headmaster of Pocklington School, will host a Q&A session with Emma to discover what led her into her chosen career, the opportunities and challenges she has had, and an insight into the cultural differences of working in the UK and abroad. After the Q&A session, there will be time for questions from the audience and the opportunity to network in smaller groups using MS Teams breakout rooms.
If you would like to join us for this event, please register your attendance with Jenny Preston via >email as soon as possible, or by Monday 26 September at the latest. Please note, limited places are available and will be allocated on a ‘first come, first served’ basis. The link for the event will be sent to you ahead of the meeting.
The Network is open to everyone in the wider Pocklington School community, including current and former parents, Old Pocklingtonians, current and former staff and supporters. Its aims are to help each other thrive in a highly competitive world and, by working together, to help instil the Pocklington School values in each other. If you haven’t already joined the Network, at this event you will be able to find out how to do so, as well as enjoying a great evening of networking.
