What their colleagues say
Charley is an enthusiastic, hardworking and natural producer who excels at everything she puts her mind to. Whether that's getting her dissertation published in an academic journal or landing a job working in production at the Brazil 2014 FIFA World Cup whilst still a student, she has always been hardwired for success, which she's only built on since graduating. I'm excited to see what the next few years have in store for her, us and our company."
