 | Michelle Westwood spent 20 years in the Royal Navy and her progression shows not only the variety of roles that exist in the forces but also how they can lead to great careers afterwards, as employers really value the skills and culture of those who have served in the armed forces. As an example, her final role in the Royal Navy was as the Chief of Staff of the Royal Navy People and Training Directorate (P&T), where she was responsible for transforming the training for naval staff when they were onshore (not on ships). Since leaving the Navy, Michelle has taken on the role of Chief People Officer within a NHS Foundation Trust and is now the Human Resources Director at a major London law firm. Away from work, Michelle enjoys the beauty and freedom of the outdoors. An ideal day would include a dog walk in the countryside, a pub lunch and a competitive family game of UNO or Dobble.
