Vanessa Sampson, Director of People & Culture at Locale, has been shortlisted in the Unsung Heroes in Commercial Property category at Property Week’s inaugural Inspiring Women in Property Awards 2023.
Since joining the business at the end of 2021, Vanessa has spearheaded initiatives which have transformed Locale’s working culture and business performance. Her data-driven approach to performance and satisfaction measurement has delivered concrete results, transforming Locale into a fulfilling, nurturing, highly-skilled and profitable place to work for its employees.
Launched in 2023, the award shines a light on the exceptional talent of those in non-customer facing or back-office roles within the UK real estate sector. Those whose voices are not often heard, but have quietly contributed to the success of your business, the organisational culture or the EDI agenda.
Guy Windsor-Lewis, Chief Executive, Locale, commented: “Vanessa’s contribution in a space of one year has been monumental. She has been instrumental in defining our employee brand, transforming the way we communicate our working culture and ultimately ensuring this feeds into the overall success of the business. This shortlisting is thoroughly deserved.”
