Beyond the code - Non-tech roles in tech

Think tech is all about coding? Think again! In this episode, we sit down with Beth Innes, Vendor Manager – Platform and Operations at Dunelm, to explore the vital ‘non-tech’ roles that keep the tech world running. With 15 years of experience in IT—without ever being in a strictly technical role—Beth shares her journey of ‘falling into tech,’ navigating the often-intimidating world of tech jargon, and the underrated power of soft skills.  We’ll dive into the art of contract, supplier, and relationship management in tech, why communication and problem-solving are just as important as coding, and how you don’t need to be a developer to thrive in the industry.
