IN what promises to be a brilliant networking event, Women in Broking is going Live! with our first event at Angela Hartnett’s Cafe Murano in Covent Garden, London.
Join us for a lunchtime of informal networking – the perfect opportunity for women involved in the broker industry network to network with their colleagues.
Our guest speaker will be Alice Altemaire, who is the CEO of Mobilize Financial Services and Alice is also a Director of the new multimarque leasing business and funder Select Lease by Mobilize.
Alice will offer insight on her career, the barriers she has met and offering insight in how she overcame them.
Our Women in Broking Steering Committee will also be present – so look out for Laura Lerwill and Sarah Tooze from Broker News, plus Sam Ward (Vansdirect), Laura Muir (Fleet Alliance) and Hannah-Louise Kirkpatrick (Harmoto).
The event starts at 12 noon and finishes by 3pm. It will include delicious Italian food from the Cafe Murano kitchen and Angela Hartnett selected wines.

We only have space for 45 people and 50% of the places to attend have already gone.
