What I'm looking for

At Global Blue, I launched a first-party data-powered brand media platform that positioned the company as a strategic marketing partner to luxury brands and generated an additional £20m in recurring annual revenue. I also helped deliver £2m in annual cost savings within 12 months through vendor consolidation and digital optimisation.
I co-founded Magna Carta Spirits, developing a premium gin brand followed by a rum, and overseeing product development, branding, packaging and route-to-market. I established an affiliate programme through Awin and built a trade partnership network to secure retail listings.
