In this special episode the podcast is on tour in the North West, as Professor Jennie Shorley is joined by special guest Helen Tonks. Helen is the vision and drive behind the growth of the multi award-winning Hydraulics Online brand; from a business start-up on a blank sheet of paper in 2004, to the Northern Powerhouse Export Champion and global provider that they are today - with
customers across 20 sectors in 130 countries around the world.
Helen is actively involved in local and regional education, through providing careers support to local high schools and real business engagement and learning opportunities to university students.
In recognition of all this, Helen was selected to join the Northern Power Women Power List, celebrating those who challenge the norm and use their influence and power for good, and then for Mentor of the Year in 2023.
If Helen wasn't busy enough she juggles the whole work-life balance with being mum to seven. Yes, seven kids. So if you’re someone who feels like
there’s never enough hours in the day, Helen is going to share some time management tips too!
