We hope you had a lovely Pride weekend and enjoyed some of the many virtual events held around the globe. We had a Zoom coffee morning earlier today and it was a lovely opportunity to catch up with people and find out how they marked Pride this year.
Our final event for this Pride season is tomorrow evening at 6:30pm. The wonderful Simone of Forest Yoga is leading a yoga class to Pride tunes (registration details below). Simone has kindly agreed to give her time and energy free of charge so this class is complimentary. However, we encourage you to make a donation to Dublin Lesbian Line here to support their important work. As you know Pride is time when organisations supporting the LGBT+ community raise much needed funds so they can provide their services through the year. As Pride was online this year lots of LGBT+ organisations have lost out on these funds. In addition, Covid-19 has put increased pressure on people in the LGBT+ community and so services like Dublin Lesbian Line are needed more than ever.
We are delighted to announce that Phoenix has offered to match donations made so please consider making a contribution, even if you can’t attend the class.
Phoenix is a leading specialist search firm focused on the Professional Services sector. From their base in Dublin, they conduct local and international search assignments for functional and senior leadership positions across 5 core pillars – Legal & Compliance, Accounting, Tax, Corporate Finance and Audit. Their senior management team are all professionally qualified in their sector (lawyers, accountant, tax accountant) or have worked in global advisory firms. Phoenix was created to address the weaknesses in traditional recruitment: a transaction-focused, non-consultative, inconsistent experience. They are committed to delivering a quality service akin to any other professional service – consultative, expert, value-add and solutions-focused. Managing Partner, Ruth Lyndon, is a ‘Big 5’ trained Solicitor and spent over eight years training and practicing as a funds lawyer in two of Ireland’s top corporate law firms. Ruth specialises in senior legal and compliance appointments. James Marren, Legal Team Lead specialises in qualified legal roles both in practice and in-house. James is a qualified solicitor, having trained and worked in the commercial and business team of one of Ireland’s top 20 law firms. James has forged a solid reputation as a high performing, professional, dedicated recruitment professional.
We are very grateful to Phoenix for this support of the LGBT+ community.
