Bio
Fiona Cullinan
Emma was my line manager/account manager for several years on a major professional services account. I found her to be unflappable, highly organised, capable and confident, no doubt due to her many years' experience in client management. Despite her senior role, she always found time to connect and listen – and, as a mostly remote office worker, I found this invaluable. Emma is a positive, professional and a fantastic people person, and I really enjoyed working with her. Even when my time with the agency came to an end, she phoned to make the call and was a kind human in a digital world. Rare!

Emma knows how to get the best out of people – she is a fantastic manager and leader who through mentoring and collaboration is able to develop high performing teams who are inspired, motivated and will go the extra mile. Well respected within the agency, she always ‘lead from the front’, and showed through example the highest standard of client servicing and a constant positivity to the challenges agencies face. She always had a clear view of what success should look like for the division and she made sure her team had a clear strategy to achieve this. Emma is energetic, solutions led and totally client focused – what she offers her teams and clients is authenticity and integrity and that’s why she gets so much out of them.
