Lalita D'Cruze, Operations Director at Giant Digital

Having joined Giant Digital just under 2 years ago, Lalita’s enthusiasm, drive and flair for leadership were clear from the outset, and she quickly progressed into a director-level role. She now holds a place on the senior leadership team, and is instrumental to the smooth running of the organisation.
