Zitko wholeheartedly supports the Women In Security awards and is delighted to see they’ll be taking place in February 2021, after a COVID-19 postponement.
Run by Professional Security Magazine, the awards provide the opportunity to recognize outstanding achievement in several categories, including leadership, technical excellence, and industry contribution.
Contribution to Industry
Over her Resourcing Consultant role, Priya has been instrumental in establishing Zitko Talent
This year Zitko will be nominating colleague - Priya Vencatasawmy in the Contribution to Industry category. This recognizes achievement ‘over and above” the nominee’s ‘job spec’.
Over and above her Resourcing Consultant role, Priya has been instrumental in establishing Zitko Talent: the new industry-wide alliance of employers, manufacturers, and educators working to attract and train a new generation of Fire & Security engineers.
new talent pipeline
It’s a real credit to her energy and ideas that Ztiko's first trainees safely onboard with their employers. They mark the start of a new talent pipeline that will make a crucial difference in solving the looming skills shortage the industry is facing.
Zitko marked Priya’s contribution by appointing her Coordinator for the entire program but felt the industry might like to recognize her achievements as well.
