Jessica has spent 15 years in a range of commercial sales and marketing roles across FMCG and retail and started her career as an analyst at the Walt Disney Company. She then moved into consumer goods, setting up the shopper marketing function for Perrigo consumer healthcare, followed by 18 months as a national account manager selling into Superdrug and Savers. After her time with Perrigo, Jess moved to dunnhumby, which enabled her to work across the wide spectrum of categories, including Fresh, Grocery, Nestle, and business development. She spent 7 great years building and innovating retail media solutions for her clients. This experience, and her MBA from UCL School of Management, enabled her to springboard into her new role as Head of Media & Loyalty at the Stonegate group (Slug & Lettuce, Be at One, Walkabout, and 4000 community pubs). Her responsibilities include building a retail-style media and loyalty business through the newly launched MiXR app and media platform. On top of the 'day job' in marketing strategy, Jess is passionate about advancing gender equality and DEI initiatives to ensure she creates a more inclusive culture anywhere she goes.
