Mauve: from ‘company in the cupboard’ to global operation
Discover the inspiring journey of one of the speakers at our upcoming Think Women event - Ann Ellis, who went from headteacher to expat to CEO of global workforce solutions company Mauve Group.
Taking local to global
Coming from careers in the telecommunications industry and strategic operations in the education sector, and being British expats living in Italy, Ann and John knew well the need for remote or mobile workforces. They identified a gap in the market for compliant global payroll, employment and immigration solutions, realising these tools would provide organisations and individuals with the freedom and opportunity to explore new business territory.As the family-run organisation expanded its size and reach with a network of strategically-positioned local entities, the scope of Mauve Group’s services began to evolve from core employment solutions into the broad bill-of-fare it now offers its clients.Find out more about the other inspirational speakers at Think Women
