Bio
James Knott
Sonia is without question, the best leader I've had the pleasure to work for. She helped me showcase my talents to help me reach my ambition, whilst protecting me when it matters and taking the blame if something did go wrong. I've taken this behaviour with me into management roles and it is a fantastic quality to have. Sonia also made me think of the 'next question' every time. If I asked a question, I would have a question in return. It made me think, become more knowledgeable and get myself ready for the next step up. Sonia is also a manager who is a lifelong learner. She loves to learn new ways of working, new management techniques and loves teaching others her learnings. I learnt so much from Sonia even if I wasn't on the same course as her. I couldn't have asked for a better boss, so if you are lucky enough to be managed by Sonia, make the most of the opportunity. If you are thinking about offering Sonia a job, stop reading and give her a call.

Sonia is a clear and strategic thinking consummate retail professional and would be a great asset to any project. Whilst working with her over many months on an End to End and business critical Retail Solution she contributed to and improved multiple key deliverables, supported weaker team members and her sense of humour helped the team deliver even when under pressure. I would work with / have Sonia in any of my teams in an instant
