Annabel Roy is the Delivery Director of Property at Tesco PLC and a passionate advocate for gender equality. As the sponsor for the gender equality network in the Property department, which she founded three years ago, Annabel has significantly increased women’s representation, creating an environment where women feel heard and valued.
