Anna Champion — CEO
As a certified and experienced coach, I have dedicated my career to supporting and engaging future leaders in the workplace. With over 15 years of experience in campus recruitment and early career development, I have worked with large and diverse organisations in the UK and Asia, such as Barclays Capital, Nabarro LLP, and Jardine Matheson, where I was the Head of Early Careers and Group Coaching until June 2023. I am passionate and curious about people, what makes them tick and how they find their success. Through my experiences I have helped individuals and employers to navigate the challenges and opportunities of the transition between university and working life. I have also co-founded and chaired professional networks and associations to promote dialogue and best practices in the graduate recruitment and development industry. My mission is to empower emerging talent to thrive and grow in their careers, while enabling organisations to attract, retain, and develop the best talent for their future. I believe in supporting talent to be bold and "own their story"
