Michelle Dewarrat-She's All That

Great Women in Compliance

Welcome to the Great Women in Compliance Podcast, co-hosted by Lisa Fine and Mary Shirley.

Michelle Dewarrat has been incorporating corporate social responsibility into her Compliance program long before many of us started bandying about the term ESG. As today’s guest, Mary seeks Michelle’s advice for how to make a start thinking about the ESG topic for Compliance Officers grappling with introducing the concept into their workload.

Currently, Michelle is Head of Compliance at CSG and has recently been building out her team after starting in her new role earlier this year. She discusses the recruitment challenge of hiring during the Great Resignation and in light of there being very high demand for candidates, as well as how she has succeeded through the challenge.

Michelle has climbed the corporate ladder while also raising her son as a single mum. She talks about some of the lessons from the motherhood experience and how they’ve informed her approach in the office.

As they round up the episode, Michelle’s sharing of her music tastes leads Mary to reveal a secret shame.
