In honour of 2019's International Women’s Day call for #BalanceForBetter in the world of work, we spoke to some of the women who make Coca‑Cola Great Britain tick. We asked them what they thought of challenges women faced in 2019, how things are changing for the better, and for some of their biggest career learnings. On the panel: Aedamar Howlett, Marketing Director for Western Europe; Gabrielle Abrahams, Digital Senior Manager; Lauren Raby, Junior Analyst for Western Europe; and Mabelle Abi Ramia, Oasis Senior Brand Manager. See what they had to say below... Can you explain what your role entails at Coca-Cola? Aedamar: I’m based in Dublin but my team and role spans across our Western European business. As part of this, I have the responsibility and privilege to grow the most valuable brands in our business all of which have massive revenue and share growth potential. And I get to work with the most talented marketing and commercial people in the industry. We have an amazing breadth of brands and opportunities for growth to work with, so it’s an exciting, dynamic and hugely rewarding place to be within the business.
