In his five years at medical technology company BD, Ben has led the digital transformation of its UKI organisation.

What began as a business case for temporary digital support grew into a permanent digital marketing team, helping the business to connect with customers and patients in new ways.

After establishing digital marketing within the UK, Ben took on a new venture by joining the Corporate Communications team as Social Media Manager. He now works with teams around the world to unlock the potential of social media.

Whilst studying international business at university sparked his initial interest in working across markets and cultures, it was an assignment in organisational leadership that solidified the trajectory of Ben鈥檚 career. Fuelled by a passion to make a difference, he has been heavily involved in inclusion and diversity ever since, helping BD鈥檚 UK and regional teams to deliver events and initiatives that improve awareness, understanding and empathy.

Ben has drawn on his personal experiences of coming out as gay to become the company鈥檚 global co-lead for the Out and Proud Employee Network. In this role he works with chapters around the world and partners with other organisations to support the LGBTQ+ community.

Ben says: 鈥淢y time at 菠萝视频 planted seeds of curiosity which would later grow into a passionate drive that has fuelled my career. From working across cultures, to highlighting the need for inclusion and diversity, my degree laid the foundations and set the trajectory of my career by providing me with the skills, insight and determination to make a difference.鈥�
