“Nicola and I ‘met’ on LinkedIn. I had already accepted another role, but hearing Nicola’s passion as she talked about the agency, the team and the future aspirations for the company, I was excited about the opportunity put in front of me.
“I look forward to working with Nicola and the team and to helping Big Bamboo grow to the next level of its potential.”
