Parenting, leadership and flexible working | Sophie on co-founding Roleshare

Sophie, co-founder of Roleshare, shares her journey from California to London and how she built a business focused on flexible working and diverse teams.

We explore leadership, parenting and the reality of balancing professional responsibility with family life, alongside how ways of working have evolved, including remote work and staying connected in changing environments.

This is a conversation about leadership, flexibility and how work is continuing to shift.

From building a company that rethinks how roles are structured, to navigating her own experience of combining parenting with leadership, Sophie brings a grounded perspective on what sustainable working can look like in practice.
