The Hera Award
This award will be given to the most inspirational woman running a business.
Lyn Cecil
Secretaries Plus and The Plus Team
From a modest upbringing, Lyn was set on the idea of recruitment as a career, and in her 20s spotted a gap in the market to provide top-end PAs. She launched Secretaries Plus, growing it to incorporate a small, dedicated team of leading recruiters.
In 2002, at the peak of the company’s success, Lyn discovered that her financial director had been embezzling money to the tune of over half a million pounds. Forced into receivership, Lyn showed her drive and ambition by building Secretaries Plus back up, and whilst she acknowledges that this year has been a challenge to her industry her belief in the company’s superior offering has seen them meet ambitious targets against the odds.
