HR Manager (Parental Leave Cover)

Email: ashika.young@tia.org.nz

What do you do at TIA?
I provide HR and recruitment support to the TIA team.

What's your career background?
I studied HR at Victoria University and have a generalist HR advisory background working across all things people and culture! I started out working in the Public Sector in Wellington before heading on my O.E where I worked for a utility company in the UK. Since my return home to Aotearoa, I’ve worked with smaller organisations in the transport and sports industries. I am passionate about workplace culture, continuous improvement and diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility.

What do you do for fun?
I love to get out for a walk most days and listen to a good podcast or audiobook, I also enjoy yoga and have recently learned to sew. My other loves include travelling and good food so you will often catch me planning/dreaming about my next trip or trying out a new restaurant or recipe!

Do you have any pets or fur babies?
I have two rescue cats – Luna and Poppy! They are super snuggly and affectionate and I love watching what they get up to. They aren’t related but had the same foster family a year apart and act like real sisters!
