Regina Gray - Vice President of Strategic Insight Services, North America
"Experian is an ever-changing and growing business and I enjoy working proactively with our clients, supporting them with our products and services to help them make great business decisions."
Regina joined Experian as an entry-level statistician and since then has taken on a series of challenging positions within our businesses and is now our Vice President of Strategic Insight Services for Marketing Analytics based in New Jersey in the US.
"In 1999, after six years of a successful career in education, teaching mathematics and statistics, I decided I wanted to take my career in a very different direction. Experian offered, and continues to offer me, a challenging working environment where I am able to tackle diverse challenges, run and grow our business and lead and inspire a talented team.
"Individual growth and development is important to me and my team members, and the ability to continue to grow and learn is one of the advantages of working at Experian. My personal growth is the result of a number of different opportunities of which I have taken advantage. Throughout my time at Experian, the support of others such as my manager, peers and my Human Resource colleagues have helped me apply in practice what I have learned.
"My philosophy to career development and being successful at Experian is: don't be afraid to ask questions. Immerse yourself in the business by creating a network of internal resources that can help you develop. You need to take ownership of your career, don't wait for it to come to you".

Damiano Cracolici - Head of Credit Services Denmark, EMEA
"Moving and working in a new country can be a tough experience and has not always been an easy journey for me. However, the mix of opportunities and the satisfaction that it has given me in the long term have been tremendous."
Damiano joined Experian in 1988 and since then has had the opportunity, as our businesses have changed and grown, to experience a diverse range of projects, countries and operating environments. He has worked in Italy, the Middle East, South Africa, Spain, Turkey and the UK, and is now the Head of Credit Services in Denmark, based in Copenhagen.
"Throughout my career I have encountered endless challenges in my different roles and projects. I have thrived on working in such a broad range of different countries, cultures and projects. Each of them has challenged me in a different way and has developed both me as an individual and my skill set. I have found this diversity of experiences very rewarding.
"My philosophy to career development and being successful at Experian is: keep your eyes and ears open. It's up to you to continuously look for the internal openings. Experian is a diverse and complex business that can offer you some great opportunities. Don't wait for these opportunities to come to you, but go out and find them! This has worked for me in my Experian career to date."

Nina Turner - Head of Analysis and Design, Credit Services Development and Delivery, UK& I
"Experian has provided me with great opportunities to develop my career."
Before joining Experian in 2005, Nina worked in IT within the Utilities sector holding a variety of roles leading large IT projects. After completing her MBA in 2005, she wanted to build on this experience in a different industry and joined Experian as a Business Consultant. In the past four years Nina has progressed to her current role as the Head of Analysis and Design within Credit Services Development and Delivery.
"How we support and deliver to our clients is at the heart of Experian’s success and is the key responsibility of my role. Experian has allowed me the opportunity to work on demanding projects, take on secondment opportunities, manage a large team and work across a truly global environment. The pace of change within Experian has also created many opportunities to take on more responsibility and to get involved in a changing agenda which has been an excellent way to broaden my skills.
"My view on opening up opportunities at Experian is: get involved in different things and drive your own career, even if these tasks or projects are not strictly part of your role. Don't always think that the next step is a different box on a structure chart and be open-minded about where your development opportunities might come from."
