MAKING PAYROLL personal Careers in the pay industries are busy, demanding and fast-paced. But behind every role is a real person. Someone with passions, loved ones, dreams and a life that exists beyond deadlines and data. That’s why we created #MakingPayrollPersonal : inviting you to share stories about your life beyond work and shine a light on the people behind pay.

Nicole Davis, CIPP Designer

Hi, I’m Nicole, when I’m not working on designing our Professional magazine, I’m usually running around after my two girls, aged three and six.

In my spare time, I enjoy aerial hoop, which helps me unwind and switch off from the busy day-to-day. I also love spending quality time with my husband and children, enjoying family days out and making memories together.

Dan Peplow ACIPP, Marketing Operations Administrator

Hi, I’m Dan, when I’m not busy assisting the CIPP’s amazing marketing team, you’ll usually find me playing sports or working on my own music. My main sport is badminton. I go to casual sessions every Tuesday at my local leisure centre, meeting people from all walks of life. It’s a great way to unwind and build confidence while socialising with new people. Music is another big passion of mine. I love creating songs and seeing a piece come together from start to finish. As musicians, we can be our own worst critics, but I think it’s important to trust your ability and create things that bring you joy. If someone else enjoys it too, that’s just a bonus!
