Welcome to the first episode of series 5, where we meet some fabulous guests who work in the world of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. This episode brings you the inspiring journey of Jane Hatton, the CEO of Evenbreak - a global social enterprise and disability job board.
Jane opens up about her childhood in the West Midlands, her struggles with an abusive father, and how these experiences fuelled her passion for fairness and justice. Discover how she navigated through her early career —from aspiring musician to civil engineer, and finally to transformative roles in social work and disability advocacy.
Listen in as Jane shares the pivotal moments that led her to create Evenbreak, a social enterprise dedicated to connecting disabled talent with inclusive employers. Her story is a testament to resilience, the power of lived experiences, and the relentless pursuit of justice.
