My Background
Before joining Ambition at the beginning of 2025, I was an HR Generalist, working as a Consultant to various clients in different sectors, with a focus on recruitment projects. Before my maternity leaves, I worked as an HR Generalist in magic circle law firms and banking, largely mirroring our clients here at Ambition.
Now, at Ambition, I provide support to Marguerite, who is a specialist recruitment consultant focusing on interim, temporary and fixed-term contract BD, Marketing & Communications roles within professional services. Together, we mainly cover the legal sector but also recruit into accountancy, property and consultancy firms.
Outside of work
I speak four languages (French, German and Italian) and love to combine my passion for half marathons with travel, my last venture being the wine half marathon in Burgundy. I have a golden retriever called Summer, who accompanies me almost everywhere. Together, we're learning to paddle board (yes, there really is a course called Learn How To Paddle Board With Your Dog!) and love long hikes in the Kentish countryside, the muddier the better. I'm an avid cook and often have friends over for dinner, which, after living for a few years on the Amalfi coast, is usually something Italian.
