Here at Bright Network, we're delighted to welcome Katharina Coleman as our brand new Country Manager for Germany 🚀 Katharina brings with her several years of international experience in strategic business development and marketing, specifically focusing on building success within education and digital technology organisations. As our new Country Manager, Katharina will be responsible for driving our strategy and expansion into Germany, acting as our lead representative in the market to connect our new and existing German businesses with our growing German member base (which has already passed 40,000!). We asked Katharina why she joined Bright Network and here's what she had to say... "When thinking about my next career move, my key priority in selecting the right opportunity was on purpose and people. Bright Network's support and care for young graduates is unparalleled and the impact their work has on young people is transformative. I have rarely experienced a company culture that is so performance focused, fun, collaborative and supportive at the same time. What a great foundation to help fuel our growth. I am super thrilled to have joined such an incredible company!" We're so excited to have you onboard and are looking forward to seeing you in action, Katharina 🙌

At this time every summer, we take two full days out of the working week to head somewhere new and connect as a team. This year, we enjoyed our two-day team offsite in Manchester. ☀ We spent the time reflecting on the success we’ve had as a business, taking time to think about our strategy and why we do what we do, as well as hearing from various inspiring speakers to help us constantly improve as a team and get the very most out of the work we do. We were also joined by four of our brilliant members Abel Ighavbota, Lily Gregory, Mohamed Ali and Danielle K. who gave us great insights on their career journeys as well as how we can do more to support students like them. Our Founder and CEO James Uffindell announced our Q1 Gamechanger award to Shanice Hicks-Coffey for her incredible work bringing six new team members into the business recently – congratulations Shanice! 🚀 On top of all this, there was time to relax and bond together as a team with a guided tour of Manchester from Sam Abdollahian, an incredible night of food drinks and Bandeoke, followed by a therapeutic and creative time making plant pots at Clay Life. 🤘🎤🌵 The biggest thanks to our wonderful Flo Odumosu, Edwina Ko, Vivian Wadler and Ally Monk 🏳️🌈 for their efforts in making this our best offsite ever! We’re already looking forward to the next one... Like the sound of this? We’re currently recruiting across a number of roles - search "work for Bright Network" to find out more. #TeamOffsite #Collaboration #Social
