Category Manager
Mark was brilliant and clearly stands out from the rest of his field - there at every step of the journey to ensure it all went smoothly. I particularly appreciated how knowledgeable and open he was about the role and the people, giving sound advice and working to ensure that I didn’t have any unanswered questions.
