It is my pleasure to recommend Anna as a Business Development Manager. Her tenacity, wealth of experience, and dedication make her an invaluable team member, consistently focused on both immediate project needs and the broader business objectives. Anna approaches every project with a proactive, solution-focused mindset, ensuring that each decision contributes meaningfully to the company’s strategic growth. At The A List Styling, Anna leveraged her expertise in luxury jewellery and evening wear to establish innovative and exciting brand partnerships. Alongside building our B2B relationships, she collaborated across key internal areas to align our D2C initiatives with core business objectives. Beyond her impressive professional acumen, Anna brings a wonderful sense of humour and friendliness to the workplace, making her a joy to work with.

It’s not often that you meet a person, they join your team and they instantly bring an incredible magic that you know is not replaceable. Anna has a style about the way she works, that’s honest, direct but kind, smart, strategic - switched on to every detail. Many people in interviews say “I’ll get stuck in” but don’t actually know how to work with the ground up to build. Anna does. It’s been a very special year working with her and watching her tailor her incredible talents to a very niche business model. She’s a leader, a worker , a dreamer (but always with the process to back it up) She’ll be incredibly missed and I’ll truly be excited to watch her next steps because she’s a true real talent and it’s been a pleasure to work with her and learn from her also.
