With over two decades of experience in the promotional and retail sectors, I've had the privilege of collaborating with prestigious brands and driving growth across diverse environments.My journey began in 2000, orchestrating outdoor events in Cardiff city centre for iconic brands like Coke Zero and supporting major events like the Ryder Cup at Celtic Manor. Transitioning into retail, I had the opportunity to work closely with luxury names such as YSL, Gucci, and Stella McCartney in department stores, refining my passion for building exceptional teams and fostering individual growth.Joining L’Oreal as an account manager marked a pivotal phase where I managed fragrance portfolios within a flagship department store. Over those six years, I honed my skills in team leadership and strategic partnerships, achieving significant milestones and preparing for the next chapter of my career.At Elemis, I embarked on a dynamic role as a retail development coordinator, swiftly advancing to regional sales manager within three months. This role deepened my belief that empowered teams are the backbone of business success.For the past 12 years, I've dedicated myself to recruiting, developing, and launching successful retail accounts across the UK and Ireland, collaborating with industry giants like Harrods, John Lewis, Boots, Harvey Nichols and H Beauty. Working alongside Laura, I am committed to leveraging our expertise at Solace Recruitment Solutions to empower careers and deliver exceptional workforce solutions to the retail sector.Let's connect to explore how we can drive growth and elevate your career or organisation to new heights.
