CIPFA Speaks: Women in public finance
Listen now
Description
Who are some of the women shaping the future of public finance? In this Women's History Month special, join us in celebrating the remarkable achievements and contributions of women in public finance and accountancy. We sit down with three women from across the three pillars of our organisation: CIPFA Develops, CIPFA Solutions and CIPFA Thinks. Up first, we hear from President of the CIPFA Student Network (CSN), Harriot Winfield, as she tells us why students should join CSN, and what women can bring to the public finance sector. We're then joined by CIPFA Solutions Project Management Office Consultant, Randeep Sahota, as she discusses all things careers and consulting. Last but not least, we chat to CIPFA Thinks Senior Policy Manager, Jo Pitt, as she shares her career journey to date, along with insights from CIPFA’s latest Financial Resilience Index.  1'15 Harriot Winfield, President of CSN 7'13 Randeep Sahota, CIFPA Solutions Project Management Office Consultant 11'35 CIPFA Thinks Senior Policy Manager, Jo Pitt
