What’s your role at White Marble?   

My role at White Marble is Business Manager. It’s a varied and interesting role that often involves working behind the scenes across all areas of the business, ensuring that we operate as efficiently as possible. This can encompass fine-tuning our operational processes, exploring innovative ways of working and collaborating with management on strategic projects – no two days are ever the same! 

 

What prior experience do you bring?   

After leaving university, travelling across different parts of the world and working in Australia, I started my marketing career in financial services. This was over 20 years ago! Most of my career was spent at GAM Investments, where I had numerous roles but mainly focused on brand, design and culture. These are areas I still love to explore. 

 

What’s your favourite hobby or pastime?   

Spending time with my family. My kids love taking part in sports so I’m often to be found on a sideline somewhere cheering, snacking and chatting! 

 

What’s a fun fact about you?     

I’m a lifelong Arsenal fan and my first Saturday job as a teenager was selling hot dogs at Highbury. I even got to meet the team now and again! Happy days! 

 

What’s a pet peeve of yours?   

Noisy eaters. Oh dear… 

 

What can’t you live without?   

Coffee. I do love a morning cuppa!
