Maisie Adam is a comedian from Yorkshire and is fast on her way from being one of the brightest rising stars of the UK comedy scene to becoming a household name.

Since winning the nationwide So You Think You’re Funny? competition in 2017, she has won Best New Act at the Chortle Awards and the Amused Moose National New Act gong, as well as being nominated Best Newcomer at the Edinburgh Fringe for her debut show ‘Vague’.

She followed this up with two more shows; a sold out Edinburgh run of the critically acclaimed ‘Hang Fire’, before embarking on a sold out 63-date tour of her most recent show ‘Buzzed’ which went on to finish with a sold out run at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.

Maisie's anecdotal material and witty charm have quickly won her praise across the country, and she has since appeared on Live At The Apollo, A League Of Their Own, Mock the Week, Have I Got News for You, QI, Roast Battle, 8 Out of 10 Cats and the Royal Variety Performance.

She is also the host of the hugely successful Big Kick Energy podcast which she co-hosts with friend and fellow comedian Suzi Ruffell, and won Sports Podcast of the Year in the Sports Broadcast Awards just 5 months after the first episode aired.

  • Last year myself and EY colleagues found the conference added a whole tonne of value to our future planning. It wasn’t your typical conference – more of a deep dive into what’s really happening in talent acquisition. Focusing on the topics that matter including AI in recruitment and effective early careers programme management. It you’re serious about staying on top of your game, the ISE conference is the place to be.

  • I always find the ISE Recruitment Conference a great opportunity to connect with peers, hear about innovations and new ideas, and reflect our Early Careers strategy for the year ahead.

  • When I first attended the ISE Conference I learned so much from the people I met and the sessions I attended.  Over 15 years later I keep going back because every year I still learn something new.
