Stephanie Lightbody

Recruitment Specialist

I joined The Information Lab as a Recruitment Specialist in early 2023, after deciding that I wanted to branch out into a new sector. At the time, the world of data was new to me, however with a lot of friends and family members already working within the tech industry, it was a world with which I was intrigued.

Prior to becoming part of the team at The Information Lab, I worked primarily within the education sector, first as a qualified secondary teacher of Modern Foreign Languages (which enabled me to put my MA in French and German to good use!), and then after completing my Level 5 CIPD in Human Resources Management, in a number of different HR and in-house recruitment related roles.

In my current role as Recruitment Specialist, I am one of the first points of contact for those interested in finding out more about joining The Data School London, and I will be one of the first people candidates hear from when they submit an application to us. I am also involved in arranging and participating in the interview process, and always in attendance at our Meet & Greet events.

Running, Food and Travel

I have always been an avid runner, and although my long distance days currently feel as though they are well behind me, I still enjoy participating in Parkrun events across London and the South East, and setting myself new challenges.

I am also a big foodie, and aside from cooking and baking, I like to spend my time exploring local markets and trying different cuisines. This ties in with my love of travel, and although my most recent trip to Thailand will be difficult to beat, travel is something of which I will always be keen to do more.
