Justine Carter

Justine became a part of Unseen on May 1st 2016, after a 28.5-year career in the civil service. She has held various operational and policy positions in multiple UK Government departments throughout her tenure. During the last five years of her civil service career, Justine acted as the senior policy adviser for modern slavery in the Home Office.
