Rachael celebrates her own M.A.Diversary????
On the theme of anniversaries, our very own Social Media and Content Co-ordinator Rachael Thompson ?celebrated her 2 years work anniversary last month!?
M.A.D Founder Amy Armstrong said, "It’s hard to believe that she’s been with us for two whole years…but, at the same time, it also feels like she’s always been part of the team!
Over the past two years, she’s revamped our socials, given us all a masterclass in networking, built some wonderful client relationships, and so much more… and we’re so so proud of all the progress she’s made.
She’s also given us lots of laughs, puns, and cat photos along the way ??
Congratulations Rachael - here’s to the next 2 years ??"
