Karen Mattison
Karen Mattison MBE was born in Liverpool, England. She began her career in the public and charity sectors, but realised after having children that career progression in part-time roles was significantly limited. In response to this, she first co-founded Women Like Us, to support women with children to find quality part-time and flexible work. She then co-founded Timewise, which is dedicated to unlocking the flexible jobs market in the United Kingdom. Mattison was made a Member of the Order of the British Empire in 2010.
