What do you enjoy about your role and Eliot Partnership?

I have heard of Eliot Partnership but what surprised me the most was the ONE Global P&L which, may I say, is unheard of in the climate we are operating in!

I have always geared myself to such a working environment and I am glad that it does exist with Eliot Partnership.

 

What gives you meaning at work?

Team Spirit and Collaboration. No judgement rendered. We are all in it together.

What’s your biggest asset?

My biggest asset is my family. They are my most fervent supporters.
