Former C Space executives Phil Burgess and Felix Koch founded Within in 2023. The business offers consulting and strategy focused on people within organisations, including leadership development and employee engagement.

Wortley, based in Munich, will work alongside Burgess and Koch to lead the business.

During her 15-year consulting background, Wortley spent 10 years at EY, leading change programmes, and specialises in leadership, culture and organisational performance. 

She has a master’s in organisational psychology and is a Visiting Fellow at the Tavistock Institute. 

Phil Burgess, co-founder, Within, said: “We know that the first hires we make will have a disproportionate impact on the culture and growth trajectory of our business, and very soon after meeting Lillemor last summer, we knew that we didn't want to hire her but invite her to be a co-founder and shape Within with us.

“She brings an incredible depth of experience to our team, forged through 15 years of consulting and leading change and transformation programmes at EY, and we couldn't be more excited about the impact she’s already having on us, our business and our clients.”
