Head of APAC & CEO Australia, Georg Jensen

In this episode I had the pleasure of interviewing Anne Sullivan who is the Head of Asia Pacific and CEO Australia for Georg Jensen.

About Anne Sullivan

Anne Sullivan began her retail career at upmarket department store Georges in Melbourne. It was here that she was given the opportunity to complete an Executive Retail Management program and her passion for retail grew. In 1999, Georg Jensen approached Anne to develop their retail business and she quickly identified the strong market and the Australian affinity with Danish design.

Georg Jensen Australia is the largest market outside of Scandinavia with 14 stand-alone stores. Anne was appointed Georg Jensen Australia CEO in 2009, and in 2018 was made CEO of Georg Jensen Asia Pacific.
