Head of Operations

Ella is responsible for overseeing all aspects of operations, ensuring seamless alignment between people, legal and system processes to support the company's strategic goals. She provides clear direction and leadership, driving high performance within the operations team while liaising with key stakeholders across the business to ensure operational efficiency.
