LHi Group × Programme One | Black Representation & Building a Career in Recruitment

Getting people into recruitment is only the start. What helps them stay, grow and become future leaders? Jasmine Alexander, Talent & Project Manager at Programme One, sits down with Iszy Shirley, Senior Consultant at SciPro and UK & Europe lead for ROOTS, for a conversation about Black representation and building a career in recruitment. Jasmine shares how Programme One is helping remove barriers for Black talent, why greater awareness of recruitment careers matters, and the importance of retention and progression. Iszy reflects on her unexpected move from psychotherapy into recruitment, finding purpose in the life sciences sector, and the people who have helped her grow at LHi. She also shares what leading ROOTS means to her, from celebrating cultural heritage to creating space for people to feel heard. Together, they discuss the work still needed across the industry and offer practical advice for anyone considering recruitment as a career.
