#BeMoreSam – it may have just been a mid-podcast joke, but TalkTalk’s Equality & Future Talent Manager Sam Davys returned from maternity leave to find out she’s been awarded an MBE. In the King’s first ever honours list. And as one of the youngest recipients, what an achievement!

In the latest episode of Walking the Walk, Sam explains how all her hard work, goal setting and goal getting had led to her position as (what some may describe) ‘office royalty’. The driving force of the Government Kickstart Scheme at TalkTalk, Sam has – simply put – changed lives. Recruiting, mentoring and coaching 100 young people into the business for 6-month placements in the middle of a global pandemic was no easy job. But Sam enjoys a challenge and we’re all wondering what she’s wearing for her meeting at The Palace…

Sam shares her story with guest presenter Kacee Fennelly - we’re proud of you, Sam.
