His packaging knowledge complements his valuable commercial understanding, which made a significant positive impact on the project. Anup is a very approachable person, and he is always looking forward to learning and improving his knowledge in different areas of the business, specifically in Marketing, where he is developing strong skills. Anup is truly a team player, and I recommend him as a member of a challenging and visionary organisation."

  • "Anup and I worked together promoting a new concept of leisure gift vouchers in the UK. Anup is a very professional and likeable colleague, with excellent communication skills at all levels within an organisation. He is able to adapt quickly to a firm's culture and juggle multiple projects. Apart from that, he has a great sense of humour, and it has been a real pleasure to work with him."

    -- Tomás Macieira, Sales Manager

  • "Anup worked with me as Product Manager at The Full Experience Company (Smartbox), a very fast growing experience voucher company. He was involved in our subsidiary's launch, so he was part of the team that built it from the ground up, and he worked hard to achieve his objectives during a hectic and strategic period, launching the company ahead of Christmas. He took on several different roles at The Full Experience Company, which shows how adaptable he is. He was able to be very versatile, and he's definitely a great team player to work with."
