Follow your heart, take courage, do the things that you really want to do. Miranda Kirschel, Commercial Director, Circular1Health

Miranda Kirschel is an avid supporter of UK Nuclear and has worked in Commercial and Business Director roles interfacing with nuclear companies for over 20 years. In her current role she is a Commercial Director for Circular1Health, which provides services to businesses to ensure their workplaces are Covid secure and able to test their staff.

Miranda grew up in Cyprus where she had a happy childhood, but felt she wasn’t particularly academic. Her main focus and passion was ballet and she spent most of her days at ballet lessons.

Miranda then moved from Cyprus to London to live with her Grandmother. She started a course in French and German for a year before changing to study European Politics.

After completing her degree, Miranda moved to the USA where she worked as a nanny in Los Angeles where she took a step out of her comfort zone and felt she learnt a lot of life lessons. Miranda then moved back to the UK where she got a job at the Nuclear Industry Association as a PA as well as supporting the media manager which got her involved in media and marketing. Miranda worked at NIA for seven years and quickly got involved with the Young Generation Network.

After progressing to Corporate Affairs Manager at NIA, Miranda felt she was ready for a new challenge, so she moved to CH2M Hill as a Director of Business Development for four years. Miranda then moved from Atkins to EY. During this period Miranda was founder, former President and Chair of Women in Nuclear UK and was awarded an MBE in 2017 for: Services to Equal Opportunities in the Nuclear Industry.
