I thought I’d feedback some appreciation from one of our account manager, Jo Cook.
I had a long conversation with her this morning and during the call she mentioned to me how happy she is with Novini Muivah. That Novini is punctual and is a real joy to working with, always very helpful when ever Jo has a query.
@ Novini – really much appreciated and thank you
