Rebecca Jones-Bateman (Tan) cares deeply about the people behind the work — the humans who bring ideas to life but sometimes forget to look after themselves in the process. As Head of Community and Growth at Never Not Creative, she’s on a mission to make the creative industry kinder, safer and more sustainable for everyone in it. Rebecca’s not just about big ideas, though. She rolls up her sleeves to build spaces where real, honest conversations can happen — like Circles, a peer support group where creatives get to leave their egos at the door and share what’s on their mind, no judgment, no competition. Her background in brand and marketing means she knows how to get a message out there, but it’s her empathy, steady calm and belief in community that really make the difference. When she’s not championing better mental health for creatives, you’ll probably find her wandering through Europe with a backpack or guiding a yoga class somewhere sunny — living proof that work and wellbeing don’t have to be sworn enemies.
