Bio
Gus Bartholomew
Liz has my utmost recommendation. Her versatility and excellence in tackling various HR and operational responsibilities, from recruitment to culture-building is remarkable. But really, with her can-do attitude and plentiful aptitude, you can give any responsibility to Liz and she will own and over-deliver in it. She proved that to me time and time again. Liz's ability to build rapport effortlessly was instrumental in creating an enriching work culture. Her leadership in the 360 performance review process and establishing our company values resulted in an environment of trust and improvement. Her impressive organizational skills were best demonstrated when she flawlessly coordinated a company-wide offsite for a global workforce coming from 10 different countries to Barbados, all whilst having to juggle ever-changing covid restrictions. Throughout my time working with her, Liz demonstrated a level of ownership and commitment to her role that was truly awe-inspiring. I hope I am fortunate enough to have the opportunity to work with her again in the future.

I had the privilege of working with Liz during my time at Grain. Liz is a truly special type of person and leader, who can instantly connect with anyone and provide people with a space to feel heard and respected. With this ability to make such strong and meaningful connections, Liz was pivotal in creating a workplace culture that fostered open communication and trust. One of my favorite initiatives that Liz implemented was the 360 performance review. It’s because of her that the review cycle went as well as it did. The team felt comfortable sharing their feedback with one another because we followed Liz’s framework and guidelines to make the 360 reviews constructive and insightful. Another extremely valuable initiative led by Liz was the company-wide offsite to Barbados. Not only did Liz have to find a country that accommodated everyone at the company (10+ different countries and visa situations) she had to have backup plans for inclement weather and covid. The offsite was complete perfection from start to finish. Her organizational skills and ability to manage logistics of all of the moving parts of the offsite ensured its success. Liz would be a true asset for any company. She’s an incredible person, leader, and People Operations Manager. If you’re looking for someone who can create a positive workplace environment, empower her colleagues, and truly make a lasting impact, then look no further. I recommend Liz without hesitation
