Account Director

After 10 years as an operator for businesses including Whitbread, M&B and Travelodge, the move to recruitment was a natural one for me. I’ve always been fascinated by leadership, team dynamics and performance and absolutely love matching great leaders with great businesses.

I feel very lucky to have worked with some of the most awesome businesses across the leisure and hospitality sector. I believe that Team Troika is the best in our space, connected by a genuine values led approach, a collaborative, supportive culture and passion for what we do.
