In business television Susannah has served as the anchor for World Business Report on the BBC World Service and on BBC World TV. She is a highly experienced bilingual broadcaster working in both English and French.

Susannah hosted the World Green Economy Summit in Dubai, the International Banking Forum in Kuwait, the Sustainable Finance Forum in Abu Dhabi, and the Our Ocean conference in Oslo.

Susannah is also a former Squadron Leader in the Royal Air Force Reserves. Serving with 7644 Squadron, media operations unit, she led the mobile news team on operations around the world. And she was the obvious choice to represent the UK at NATO, serving with the Inter-allied Confederation of Reserve Officers.

Susannah is a supremely capable host and speaker, an ideal candidate to moderate on AI, Automation, business, cybersecurity, defence, digital transformation, environment, finance, pharma and health, retail, technology, and, of course, the role of women in the business and the media.

For CIPR Awards Specialist Speakers has worked with Susannah in her home town of Bristol and she is always a pleasure to work with!

Susannah did a superb job of driving the discussions forward creating an energetic yet unhurried atmosphere and bringing out the relevant viewpoints from each person. Her style is effective, warm and engaging and at the same time unobtrusive. We have had only positive feedback on Susannah’s performance from the participants at the conference, who point out her enthusiasm, energy and humour, as well as her professionalism.

Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs – Our Ocean Conference 2019

What we particularly valued about Susannah as a host for our conference was her ability to read accurately a room full of people and their collective engagement. She was able to think on her feet and while still understanding the overall aims of the agenda and the planning that had gone into it, was able to extract for the audience the most value from each of the sessions and speakers we had lined up. This takes a high level of skill, confidence and competence, thank you Susannah!
