Ellie Caley

Senior Workplace & Wellbeing Consultant

What do you do at ART Health Solutions?

As Senior Workplace and Wellbeing Consultant at ART Health Solutions, I am accountable for leading the programme management of ART’s services within client organisations, developing a deep understanding of the needs of each client to ensure impact and value are delivered. I am responsible for stakeholder management across varying levels of seniority to ensure the successful implementation and communication of service delivery aligned with strategic goals. This includes collating several data sources to effectively inform actionable recommendations to the client. Using my academic qualifications and experience I also work closely with the wider ART team (Commercial and Innovation) to continuously improve our services and ensure successful business development.

Internally, I am ART’s Welfare Officer, the first point of contact for ART staff on any welfare-related issues (personal or work-related), offering confidential and non-judgmental listening. Utilising my knowledge and previous experience and training within the mental health space my role is to signpost and recommend colleagues to resources/other services for personal support if needed. Within the wellbeing committee, I host quarterly skills sessions with the wider ART team as an opportunity for knowledge sharing, building on our company value of a growth mindset.

What experience do you bring to ART?

I am a Business Psychologist with a Masters in Occupational Psychology and a professional member of the British Psychological Society and the Association for Business Psychologists. My academic research has predominantly focused on the impact of mental health disclosures within the workplace and the subsequent effect on trust and transparency within leadership, as well as the psychological impact of remote working on behavioural outcomes such as psychological wellbeing, work-life balance and job satisfaction.

I believe that an organisation’s performance, productivity, growth, prosperity and success all stem from its people. Therefore, having an understanding in the psychological/people approach to performance and employee health helps me in my role to ensure that ART’s solutions encompass a holistic approach through evidence-based, cutting-edge, scientific data. Our aim is to support organisations in making better informed decisions in relation to wellbeing and performance to make a tangible difference.

My previous industry experience involves working in training consultancy managing global client accounts to develop and design customised training programmes and workshops to transform cultures and improve workplace wellbeing. I have also held several voluntary roles, particularly supporting young people with their mental health, including peer-to-peer mentoring at university and directing educational campaigns to spread awareness around important topics such as diversity and inclusion, consent, and mental/physical/sexual health awareness.

Together, my experience enables me to establish a people-centric approach to understanding human behaviour and health at work, focusing on gaining insight into the specific needs of every client.

What do you enjoy doing when you’re not working?

I am in my 4th year of captaining the ladies 6s team at Hampstead and Westminster Hockey club, London. I also coach various age groups in the Junior Development League, England Hockey. It is likely you will find me on the pitch, in the gym or sorting admin and emails for our weekend matches. I am also a keen baker and foodie, often found exploring the endless brunch spots in London.

What is your personal motto?

You can do anything, but not everything.
