On June 28 2021, Shirin Namdarian joined 6clicks as our Head of Governance, Risk & Compliance.
A monster of a role that needs a superstar, and Shirin ticks all the boxes.
Shirin’s stellar career so far takes in the likes of ANZ, EY, AMP and Yext - covering roles such as analyst, senior consultant, technology & operations risk and security compliance management.
So, you can imagine the mad skills in Shirin’s swag.
Instead, I’ll be asking questions that have nothing to do with any of the above so we can get to know the person behind the LinkedIn profile.
I like to pride myself on being someone that you can get Netflix recommendations from, so this question is very fitting. More recently you’ll hear me say - You, Clickbait and Chicago Med.
Really important stuff like what I’m planning to eat for my next meal!
I still haven’t figured this out, but I’m hoping I’m not the only one? (Nope, you are certainly not! - Ed) I’d probably be working with kids or a school teacher if I wasn’t doing what I am now.
I’m a bit of a foodie so trying new cafes and restaurants. I also love travelling and visiting new places! My favourite places so far in the world have been San Sebastian and Nashville. San Sebastian for the culture, food and wine and I would say Nashville for the cowboy hats and the music.
Five Guys Burgers and Fries. I'll definitely cause some drama with this statement, but it is the best burger I’ve had.
That’s a hard one as they are all equally beautiful but after living in New York definitely have to say city!
Is it bad if I say... my first cup of coffee? 😀
(Testifyyy! - Ed)
Just by helping people when I can, challenging myself and trying to learn something new each day. I’m super lucky to have some supportive and amazing people in my life.
I’d give some away to my parents and donate some to make a positive impact somewhere. Then spend the rest trying to buy an island or house in the South of France. Or rather break into the property market in Australia!
A really good coffee machine, or an in-house barista – I'm not sure if that exists but it’s a great idea.
Christmas! By far the best time of the year. And yes, I am one of those people that has Mariah Carey – All I want for Christmas Is You on repeat during the holidays.
We are a pretty close family. I have 3 older brothers so you can imagine what that was like growing up being the younger sister (like having 4 dads?).
I don’t hate them, but I don’t love them.
Big thanks to Shirin for being a good sport and taking time out of her busy schedule to be our first ever Team Member Spotlight participant! I will be adding more, so be sure to come back and follow them on the "spotlight" tag below - Stephen.
