Hire with Confidence: Sarah Wyllie on #EmbracingEquity for IWD

I first met Sarah Wyllie back in 2019 at the mighty Richmond Football Club and with her vast life experiences across the sports and health care industries, plus raising two beautiful children, I thought Sarah was the ideal person to speak about the theme of embracing equity as we celebrate International Women’s Day.

In a selfless career where Sarah's self declared purpose has been to help others, she has worked as Richmond Women's Player Development Manager for the last 5 years helping to empower many athletes off the field to make them feel their best on the field. Sarah was able to relate through her own elite sporting experience as an Australian and Victorian gymnast, while also drawing on over two decades of experience in the health care industry across roles as a Registered Nurse (11 years), Paramedic (12 years) and First Aid Educator (7 years).

Strap yourselves in for an energetic podcast where Sarah bravely talks about the positive changes in her industries, but also the gaps which still remain.
