Bio
Lydia Smith
Whilst working together with Laura I always found she brought an extremely professional approach to developing business. Laura always began with what was right for the customer and made sure we as a Supplier didn't lose sight of delivering for them. I always found her to be very measured in her approach to decision making and she used analysis appropriately to support her gut feel. The fact that Laura had worked on both the supplier and retailer side gave her balance and made sure no matter how hard fought, both parties felt like a fair outcome had been achieved.
Chris McLaughlin
Laura was great to deal with at Tesco because she understands how the supplier-retailer relationship works from both sides. This paved the way to some tough but rewarding negotiations where she expanded space to bring category sales and margin growth. Laura has great commercial acumen and we enjoyed working closely with her.
