Student voice

Student Advisory Board

These are the student volunteers who help shape our strategy by providing the 'voice of the student' to drive the progress of the Sustainable Recruitment Alliance.

Millicent Wenlock – Co Chair (2024/2025)

Millicent has been passionate about sustainability for several years, stemming from a conservation trip to Borneo in 2019, where she volunteered at the Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre. This trip inspired her to pursue a degree in environmental science. Throughout her degree, she has interacted with various recruiters, witnessing the waste of marketing and promotional practices. She felt she could use her degree knowledge, leadership, and advocacy skills gained from being a trustee at the University of Stirling Student’s Union and various other roles to reduce the environmental impact of recruitment.

Millicent hopes that her involvement as the Sustainable Recruitment Alliance’s Co-Chair will help to develop the strategic direction of the Alliance and ensure the student voice is represented.

Likhwa Maphosa – Co Chair (2024/2025)

Likhwa is a long time sustainability enthusiast driven by a passion for social impact and making the world a more equitable place for all life forms. He decided to join the Sustainable Recruitment Alliance after being enlightened on the significant negative impact that early career recruiting has on the environment, particularly promotional material, which often has no substantial impact on the firms that graduates choose post-university.

Likhwa believes that the SRA is unique in that it directly addresses an often overlooked issue and engages with the most significant stakeholders in early career recruiting – students, universities and businesses. Alongside his co-chair and the student advisory board, Likhwa hopes to build upon the progress made thus far and advance the SRA’s mission of fostering more eco-friendly approaches to early talent recruitment.

Rosie Glover – Roundtable Coordinator (2024/2025)

Having attended various legal events as a law student, Rosie realised the amount of waste incurred from the merchandise law firms were giving out to students. Upon seeing this, she became interested in the objectives of the Alliance to help promote a more efficient use of resources. She hopes that through being a roundtable coordinator she can create the conditions to encourage corporations to reflect on their current recruitment processes whilst bringing value to early talent populations.

Shree Dhar Bhatia – Roundtable Coordinator (2024/2025)

As an advocate for change, Shree Dhar has been vocal on numerous issues and concerns of society since his school days in India.

Megan Chien – Campus Awareness Representative (2024/2025)

Megan gained experiences in sustainability while interning in Malaysia, where she helped create and implement CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) projects for an organisation. This experience developed her strong interest in environmental issues as she realised that every individual possesses the potential to contribute positively to society and the environment.

Megan’s academic efforts after her internship focused on furthering her understanding of sustainability.  In her effort to influence significant changes, Megan recognised the necessities of addressing sustainability not only within corporate structures, but also within recruitment procedures. Through collaborative efforts within and beyond the Alliance, she aims to instigate substantial changes to combat contemporary environmental challenges.

Melinda Setiadi – Campus Awareness Representative (2024/2025)

Melinda’s sustainability journey began during her current study in the UK. Along with her view of the differences in implementation between the UK and other countries, she’s understood that sustainability is far more than an option; it’s essential for our collective well-being. Driven by this realisation, Melinda is determined to actively contribute to this transformation. She aims to alter the valuable lessons she’s learned from my life into meaningful actions that positively impact our communities. Discovering the Student Recruitment Alliance was a pivotal moment for her as it presented a unique platform to initiate her journey in promoting sustainable practices, particularly in recruitment. She is excited to leverage this opportunity to heighten awareness and foster a sustainable mindset within the university community.
