Track record
Recruited as Moneypenny’s first sales person in 2005 - today, Joanna is Group CEO of an international business that has grown to employ more than 1000 people across continents, turning over £50m in 2020.
Joanna played a key role overseeing the company’s entry into the US market, as well as subsequent private equity investment by ECI Partners in 2018 to accelerate Moneypenny’s UK & US plans for expansion and acquisition.
At the heart of Moneypenny lies a unique culture based on mutual respect and trust. Joanna’s intimate understanding and nurturing of these founding principles has seen the business enjoy recognition as a Sunday Times Best Company to Work For for over a decade.
Above all else, when it comes to outsourced communications, Joanna believes passionately that businesses of any size should ‘stick to their knitting’: “Focus on what you’re really good at - and let experts help take care of the rest.”
