Deetza Elf, Communications Manager, Women for Women International - UK

“I worked with Paulina for three years, as one of her direct reports and a member of her Communications & Marketing team. Paulina is a passionate written and visual storyteller, and has a strong intuition when dealing with crisis communications and complex messaging. She is also a creative – constantly innovating, trying new tools (such as leaning into AI to enhance our work) and taking ideas from conception to completion. Leading our team, she imparted endless skills and knowledge, managing multiple projects and supporting us to achieve great results. Paulina was also my greatest advocate and source of support as my line manager – finding ways to challenge and encourage me every day. I cannot recommend Paulina highly enough. Working with her was an honour and privilege, and she would be an asset to any team.”

“I could not have found a better line-manager than Paulina for my first full-time position. Paulina taught me so much about digital marketing and communications, but also about how to be a kind and thoughtful colleague. Her optimism and positive attitude made even the most challenging tasks approachable. While working for Women for Women International together, Paulina taught me to be curious and always strive to do better, as well as take the time to celebrate accomplishments — which is often neglected when managing a heavy workload. I hope to get the chance to work with her again! In the meantime, I continue to watch her career with admiration and the utmost respect.”
