Talking with Tech Leaders
Talking with... Nikola Kelly, CEO of Be-IT
When we’re not Talking with Tech Leaders, we’re at our day jobs at Be-IT – Scotland’s largest independent Technology Recruiters. And, if you’ve heard anything about Be-IT, you’ve probably heard that we’ve recently celebrated our 10th birthday.
So, to mark the milestone, we’ve had a chat with our very own Tech Leader: our CEO, Nikola Kelly.
Having spent more than 20 years in the world of recruitment, she not only sits on the board of Career Ready and the Scotland IS Diversity & Inclusion group, but she has been recognised as the Young Star by Scottish Women in Business and nominated for both the APSCo Business Leader of the year and Businesswoman of the Year at the Scottish Women’s Awards.
We chat through her career journey and, along the way, chart the growth of Be-IT through Nik’s eyes – from the early days of the setting up a Glasgow office all the way through the pandemic and, in the last few months, our MBO.
We may be biased, but it’s a fascinating chat with an inspirational lady. Enjoy!
