Claire: Five years, starting in September 2019, I quickly found myself navigating the impact of Covid, an experience that has tested, but strengthened us as a business.

 

PH: What was your career history before joining Meyer Group?

Claire: My early career was spent working in a large European private label business, covering sales, category and marketing roles across the UK and Europe.
