Speaking

Helping students and professionals understand what public health careers actually involve, and how to get into them.

I’m Cherith, an epidemiologist working in the UK public health system and the founder of Public Health Careers Hub. I speak to universities, student societies and organisations about public health careers: how the field really works, what employers look for, and how to turn academic experience into competitive applications.

My sessions are practical rather than motivational. Students leave with specific things to do, not just encouragement.

Speaking topics

• Breaking into public health: where the roles are, what they involve, and how to choose a direction

• What employers actually look for: how public health recruitment works and how applications are assessed

• Building a competitive application: turning study, placements and part-time work into evidence that gets noticed

• Public health beyond the MPH: career paths, specialisms and realistic first steps after graduation

• Interview preparation for public health roles: what to expect and how to prepare

Sessions can be delivered as guest lectures, employability workshops, careers week talks, panels or webinars, in person or online, and are tailored to your programme and audience.

Who I speak to

Universities and MPH programmes, careers and employability services, student societies, and organisations supporting people into public health careers.
