Suki established Audeliss in 2011, a diversity-focused boutique executive search firm. Since its inception, 65% of senior appointments have been filled by women, LGBT+ or ethnic minority candidates. In 2013, Suki founded OUTstanding, an LGBT+ membership organisation. Working with over 75 firms globally, OUTstanding drives the diversification of the boardroom, champions the visibility of LGBT+ role models and works to develop emerging LGBT+ talent. In partnership with The Financial Times, OUTstanding publishes role model lists each year recognising leading LGBT+ and ally executives and LGBT+ future leaders. The powerful work and rapid success of OUTstanding earned Suki the title of ‘Innovator of the Year’ at the 2013 European Diversity Awards. Suki was also named 64th in The Independent’s ‘Rainbow List’ of 101 LGBTQI people who are making Britain better for the community. In 2016, Suki was appointed a trustee of the Guild of HR Professionals, which brings together individuals from the profession to support and promote activities within Human Capital Management. In 2017 Suki launched EMpower, a membership organisation that equips corporate firms with the knowledge and leadership skills to maintain and develop their ethnic minority talent pipeline. Each year, in partnership with the Financial Times, EMpower publishes role model lists celebrating ethnic minority leaders, future leaders and advocates across the globe. 2017 saw the launch of HERoes, Suki’s unique initiative focused on celebrating female and male leaders working to support gender equality in business. In September 2017, the inaugural FT & HERoes Champions of Women in Business role model lists were published in the Financial Times. 2017 also saw Suki named as Most Inspiring Recruitment Leader at The Recruiter Investing in Talent Awards. In 2018, Suki launched INvolve – an overarching motherbrand sitting above the OUTstanding, EMpower and HERoes membership and list initiatives. It encapsulates the mission, values and vision across all three brands, helping to create diverse and inclusive businesses where everyone can, and does, succeed. A world that involves 100% of everyone. Suki is also a Stonewall Ambassador and passionately supports many charities including StandUp Foundation, The Albert Kennedy Trust and Smartworks.
