First Central Head of Internal Communications and CultureHey, I’m Beth, Head of Internal Communications and Culture at First Central Group. With over a decade’s experience in creative and strategic positions, I’m a firm believer that comms and culture go hand-in-hand to deliver an awesome colleague experience. In a nutshell, it’s about listening, seeing people as people, and combining this with data to inform a truly authentic and kick-ass plan…that everyone wants to be part of.
Since joining First Central Group, we’ve been making a name for ourselves culturally by ranking #22 in Glassdoor’s Best Places to Work UK 2024 list, #7 for 2023’s Best Places to Work Wellbeing list and #7 in Best Places for Women (Super Large) …just to name a few.
When I’m not at work, I’m normally planning my next adventure (or living one). From Rio Carnival to the Trans-Siberian Railway, I’m never a few months away from a plane or immersing myself into something new.

Opening Keynote: The Current State of Employee Engagement
Findings indicate engagement levels still lag significantly behind pre-pandemic levels, with no change in the EFS engagement index. Although the figures are concerning, the data highlights variations in engagement levels and presents key areas for action. A key observation is the need to push the people issues up the agenda. Hear about variations in organisational size and sector, and the impact of hybrid working and health and wellbeing on engagement.
During the session, we will explore:
• The current state of employee engagement in the UK
• Discuss the Engage for Success Employee Engagement Index benchmark
• Explore variations in engagement levels and what this means to practice

Beth Perry
First CentralHead of Internal Communications and Culture
Hey, I’m Beth, Head of Internal Communications and Culture at First Central Group. With over a decade’s experience in creative and strategic positions, I’m a firm believer that comms and culture go hand-in-hand to deliver an awesome colleague experience. In a nutshell, it’s about listening, seeing people as people, and combining this with data to inform a truly authentic and kick-ass plan…that everyone wants to be part of.
Since joining First Central Group, we’ve been making a name for ourselves culturally by ranking #22 in Glassdoor’s Best Places to Work UK 2024 list, #7 for 2023’s Best Places to Work Wellbeing list and #7 in Best Places for Women (Super Large) …just to name a few.
When I’m not at work, I’m normally planning my next adventure (or living one). From Rio Carnival to the Trans-Siberian Railway, I’m never a few months away from a plane or immersing myself into something new.

In this talk, Anaïs Nebel will share why the British fashion group Lipsy added self-empowerment to their Wellbeing strategy, and how they launched it with a 4-day self-portrait event that increased employee’s feeling of self-empowerment by 40%…

Speak to the Human: Moving From Strategy and Plans To Engagement and Impact
How do organisations like Channel 4 and Netflix create meaningful engagement for their people? Teams and organisations thrive when they unite a group of humans around shared purpose and values. We do our best work when we feel connected, engaged, and motivated. When we belong.
But it’s hard to build cohesion in a rapidly changing environment. Organisations are grappling with a range of issues that challenge connection and belonging, including remote working, the anticipated impacts of AI, portfolio careers and mercurial Gen Z-ers!
So how do you help individuals engage with business vision, strategy and plans? How do you create connections between colleagues, and motivation behind a shared purpose? And how do you foster that sense of belonging that leads the humans in your organisation to feel “this matters to me”?
This talk will cover:
- How to move from strategy and plans to engagement and impact.
- Identifying and prioritising the moments that really matter.
- Using a behavioural approach to deliver the greatest impact.
- Creating powerful communication to sustain engagement.
And we’ll be exploring ideas through practical case study examples.

Representing the Colleague Voice in the Modern Workplace: A Fireside Chat with Emma Hughes & Susan Reilly, Phoenix Group
Today’s colleagues expect to have a say, at the earliest stages of decision making, when their working environment is impacted by change. So, how do we engage colleagues, and view their ideas and feedback as solutions? And why is it important for colleagues to recognise the direct link between their role and the strategic objectives of their organisation?
We believe the solution is to create effective partnerships between colleagues and the business, co-ordinated by an effective colleague representation forum.
We’ll be talking about our journey to creating and embedding an industry leading colleague representation forum, how we overcame challenges and how it benefits today’s colleagues and leaders.
Come and hear us talk about a progressive, innovate and alternative solution to colleague representation in the modern workplace.

We knew we had some major work to do on this offering in order to attract and maintain the talent we needed.
With backing from the top, a brand-new wellbeing offering was rolled out over the next 24 months. Using Exinity’s mission ‘Freedom to Succeed’ as its hook, this new offering aimed to empower our people and support them across multiple aspects of the employee lifecycle.
The results? Some, such as more engaged colleagues, we had anticipated. But some, such as the financial impact the offering led to, and becoming recipients of an award for ‘Best Wellbeing Strategy’ were unexpected bonuses…..

Uber for Business: Fostering a Collective Company Culture That Still Caters to Individual Tastes
UK workers have never been more motivated by personal values than they are right now. As an increasing number of Gen Z-ers enter the workplace, they want to work for a business that understands them. This requires a better work-life balance and a greater sense of belonging that goes beyond the typical 9 to 5. This is set against a backdrop of default hybrid working arrangements which are creating more dispersed teams than ever before.
So how do businesses continue to nurture strong company cultures and team relationships while navigating a workforce that also values individuality? This talk will explore how businesses can tailor employee benefits to foster a stronger sense of community while also giving individual employees a sense of choice. This is where the food and travel perks, including ‘bleisure’ trips, come into their own by bringing teams together while offering individuals the flexibility to make their own decisions. Perks that allow employees to bring their personal values into the workplace will be key to an engaged workforce.
This talk will cover:
• Employee engagement challenges as we navigate a more hybrid workforce
• How Gen Z-ers bringing their personal values to work are shaking up workplace culture and benefit schemes
• How companies can adapt their benefit schemes to offer perks that bring people together while valuing their individuality
• The role of food and travel to bring teams together
• The importance of ‘bleisure’ travel in creating a more connected and engaged workforce
