Tell us about role at Bridgehead
Over the last five and a half years, I’ve progressed to the position of UK Sales Director at Bridgehead. It all began when our CEO, Paul, approached me on LinkedIn due to my background in baby products. There was a baby product that Bridgehead wanted to launch into the UK market. As they say, the rest is history!
Since then, I have worked on a variety of products, including camping lights, card payment devices, ev charging, and tech toys. I have been instrumental in successfully launching these brands into the UK market.
