The future of the cyber security industry depends on more than developing technical skills, it relies on experienced professionals who are willing to inspire, support and create opportunities for those entering the industry. Yet many professionals are unsure where to start or believe they need significant time or experience to make a meaningful difference.

Whether you're an early-career professional or an experienced leader, there are countless opportunities to give back.

The session will highlight how even small contributions can have a lasting impact on an individual's career journey and, collectively, help strengthen the UK's cyber resilience by building a more diverse, inclusive and sustainable talent pipeline.

The webinar will be delivered by Anya Bridges, a Technology Project Manager at Clermont Hotel Group and an Outreach Representative on the UK Cyber Security Council's Youth Advisory Panel.

Alongside her professional role in technology delivery, Anya is passionate about supporting early careers in cyber and increasing accessibility to the profession. She has volunteered across a range of industry initiatives, including as a CyberFirst Ambassador, mentor and speaker, and has presented at leading industry events such as Infosecurity Europe, DTX and the International Cyber Expo. Drawing on both her professional and volunteer experience, Anya will share practical advice, examples and ideas that attendees can take away and apply within their own organisations and communities.
