Bio
Jon Chappell
Jan and I worked together both at MWB & Regus. During this time Jan was always the consummate professional. As a HR Director it goes without saying she has excellent knowledge and understanding in her field, but Jan is also a great team player, a great support and a dedicated individual. Her team would always go the extra mile for her, as she would for them.
Francesca Peters
Jan is a consummate professional. She is an HR expert but she is also pragmatic, grown up and a great executor. She is committed, talented and well respected.
