Amber Millwood

Amber’s career in Talent Development for the Spinx Company began with her very first job as a part-time convenience store salesclerk. At sixteen years old, she was just looking for a way to make some pocket money. Once she graduated high school, she quickly moved to full-time and soon found herself taking on more and more leadership roles. First, as a food and beverage manager, then assistant store manager, and then general manager. By her tenth anniversary at the Spinx Company, she had gotten married, had four wonderful children, and joined the Training Department as a field trainer for new teammates. Now entering her seventeenth year, she manages the company’s training programs and team of field trainers. She has earned a SHRM-CP certification and will graduate with an associates’ degree in May. She’s well versed in the world of recruiting and is a frequent contributor and strategic advisor for the organization’s leadership development programs. She credits her success to the many terrific mentors who’ve taught her the skills needed to excel and to tackle whatever next opportunity lay ahead. She loves working for a company who inspires teammates to be the best they can be. What she found was a career that grew as she grew. She didn’t envision a top leadership role in Talent Development, nor did she realize the impact that this journey would have on her life and profession, and she cannot wait to see what she’ll learn next!
