Biography
Monique is head of people and culture at Nine Feet Tall.
Her inspiring leadership is grounded in compassion, innovation, and a genuine commitment to creating workplaces where people thrive.
Priding herself on revolutionising traditional HR and organisational culture, Monique encourages positive everyday habits in teams to boost overall wellbeing – such as regular walking meetings and open conversations about mental health.
She leads ED&I progression with empathy, organising lived‑experience sessions covering neurodiversity, faith, race and gender equality to educate the team.
Under her leadership, Nine Feet Tall has been recognised as a Sunday Times best place to work and recently achieved a 98 per cent participation rate and 93 per cent Trust Index in the great places to work survey.
Monique is a “listening leader” who wants to normalise alternative working practices to encourage inclusivity and wellbeing.
She has built a powerful mentoring community of practice that provides development pathways and support for every team member.
Monique also volunteers with local charities such as Genesis Trust, Middle Ground Growers, and Babbasa where she mentors younger people who need positive role models.
