What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a role that integrates people leadership, marketing, and purpose-driven work.

At Swiss Re, I lead catering and hospitality operations and manage a team of 30+. I also work with internal marketing on campaigns that promote food awareness and workplace wellbeing.

I initiated and led the Metabolic Health campaign, sharing healthy food choices, exercise, and clean eating through posters, internal communications, and live events. I manage weekly content across Yammer, internal digital screens, and the corporate app, and promote charity events.

At London Metropolitan University, I managed campus catering across five outlets and corporate hospitality teams, delivering more than 100 events annually. I also developed menu and upselling strategies that increased revenue by 10%, and mentored and trained staff.
