Christine Dvoracek
I had the pleasure of working with Tina on a global benefit change project when BHP Billiton transferred UK and US employees from Defined Benefit plans into Defined Contribution plans. This was a technically complex and sensitive project that demanded close teamwork of specialists across time zones. I was the communications lead and reported to Tina who headed up the UK change stream of work. Tina certainly knows her stuff. As well as her technical expertise in rewards and benefits, she has strong project management and change management skills and the ability to collaborate and lead a project team to deliver quality outcomes on time and on budget. Her briefs to Transform were clear, she was always responsive and her input and feedback was invaluable. I enjoyed working with her and hope our paths cross again.

Tina employed me in 2001 at Unigate and was an incredible boss for my two years there. Tina taught me so much in terms of pure pensions technical skills, dealing with actions quickly and being solution and client orientated. I would recommend Tina as a boss at any amazing pension fund. Thank you Tina
