Bio
Shaun Jones
I worked directly with Helen in her role as Head of Retail from May 2010 until Nov 2012. I found Helen to be unfailingly professional, responsive and diligent, both in dealing with requests from myself and other colleagues in the business. Helen's fair minded influence on others was consistently demonstrated on numerous occasions and her 'people' skills are excellent. She has an uncanny ability to resolve issues under extreme pressure and I always respected her judgment and trusted her implicitly. Helen has a great deal of knowledge in the retail sector and took a genuine interest in the Operations of the business and was an absolute pleasure to work with. In the 30 plus years of me working in the Cinema industry have I ever had the fortune to work with such a genuine likeable person, who is extremely talented at what she does and committed to her role. She always exhibited exceptional management skills and worked with honesty, integrity, good humour and resilience. I can’t remember a single occasion where she failed to deliver a solution that was appropriate to the circumstances. I highly recommend her to any potential employer
