💫 Meet The Team - Anna Panayi

What inspired you to work in the decarbonising business?

I’ve always gravitated towards sustainability as it’s something I practice in my personal life and I’ve done some courses and volunteering to get exposure to this space. The climate emergency is beyond alarming and I couldn’t sit back any longer without having an active role, and I’m super grateful to the team for letting me be a part of this journey.

What do you enjoy most about your role at Zevero?

Just seeing how quickly the business is growing globally and the variety of marketing projects that are in the works. There’s so many inspiring minds at Zevero, so it makes it a great place to spark ideas to make even greater impact.

Tell us a small thing that makes your day better.

Drinking a nice matcha latte, listening to a funky/jazzy song, or even just standing in some sunshine for a bit (which isn’t very often in England).

What’s your favourite quote?

“You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take” ~ Wayne Gretzky.

If you had to recommend one thing to read, watch or listen to, what would it be?

I recently watched The Biggest Little Farm on Netflix, and it’s such an inspiring story of a couple taking a worn-out orchard and transforming it into a sustainable farm through regenerative agriculture practices. The way that it’s filmed is great too and gives hope for other businesses in the same space.

What was your first job?

I worked in the middle office team within Commodities at a bank supporting the front office. I mainly covered the metals desk so I learnt a lot about how the price of different metals was fixed every day and how it was shipped around the world for different businesses.

Where can we find you on a Sunday morning?

Probably exercising or going on a long walk. I’m an early bird so I don’t tend to have an easy Sunday morning.

What’s your favourite topic to discuss outside of work?

Talk to me about music, space or spirituality and I’ll be hooked for hours.

Your favourite Zevero project so far

Building the marketing team from the ground up. It’s been a fun experience so fun and I’m so excited to see where the team takes our marketing efforts.
