Christofi previously worked at both Accenture and Pwc in Australia before returning to the UK with Microsot, where she worked to pioneer AI-driven projects for the European banking industry.

In a LinkedIn post to mark the news, she professes excitement about the potential to further accelerate the adoption of AI and data-driven strategies among financial institutions across the Emea region.

"This move also underscores the growing importance of collaboration between consulting firms and large tech companies," she says.
