Hessy Elliott is Principal Partnerships Lead at Beam, a social enterprise bringing AI technology to frontline public services - from digital triage assistants to automated casenote summarisation tools - so professionals in social care, homelessness services, democratic services and beyond can focus on people, not paperwork. Built with and for frontline teams, Beam's products are trusted by hundreds of government partners across the UK, with data protection, ease of use, and real-world impact at their core.
In her role, Hessy leads Beam's strategic partnership work with local government, collaborating with partners to co-design programmes that address local priorities and deliver measurable impact and value for money. She works closely with both partners and Beam's specialist delivery and technical teams to ensure every programme delivers in line with priorities and creates lasting change on the ground.
With experience spanning social care, homelessness, early education, and refugee resettlement, Hessy brings a deep understanding of both the pressures facing frontline teams and the potential of innovation to relieve them - without losing sight of resident outcomes, practitioner experience, and social impact.
