Emma Illingworth

I joined OVO in January 2020, following the successful acquisition of SSE’s Retail business. Before I joined OVO, I built a career within the Energy sector and the NHS in a range of generalist and specialist People focussed roles.

Responsibilities:
At OVO, we believe that our power comes from our people, our movement of world changers. We all work together to make zero carbon living a reality.

We have committed that by 2030 OVO to be the leading place to work for world changers.

I lead People Transformation. We are the playmakers who work across OVO to change our world of work. We co-create and drive solutions towards a progressive, inclusive and empowered OVO.

One interesting fact about me:
In the winter months you will find me on various Yorkshire hockey pitches with my fellow teammates. What I lack in speed, I make up with team spirit and enthusiasm!
