Trudi is a Principal with the Professional Services & Financial Officers Practice at Savannah. She brings over six years of experience working in Executive Search and Talent Mapping.

Born in Spain to Scottish parents and moving frequently across the UK, I went on to graduate with a degree in English Literature and Literary Studies from the University of Glasgow. Returning to London, I secured an internship position with Savannah over the summer before joining the business on a Graduate Placement and then as a Research Associate. I developed across the business in a range of functional and sector practices, gaining great early exposure to the international markets, in particular with the US and Middle East. I have a good generalist background placing senior executives, across the Finance, Technology, HR and Commercial space and have taken on mandates from across a multitude of sectors, including FMCG, FinTech, Insurance, Automotive, Retail, Media, Sports, Aerospace and the Third Sector, working with multinational PLCs, high growth SME’s and VC/PE backed start-ups.
