Hugo Saunders

Hugo joined during the pre-London days of OC back in the summer of 2015, shortly after successfully completing an Ironman Triathlon.

He recalls with misty-eyed nostalgia the Covent Garden era that followed but is proud of how much the business (and his role within it) has grown since then.

Before OC, Hugo obtained a BA in History, followed by a MSc in International Management (both from the University of Exeter), which makes him our resident academic.

Since then, Hugo’s worked as a junior buyer for Sainsbury’s, been on a ski season, contracted for Nationwide and Lloyds, respectively, and worked in logistics for Decathlon.

He loves the flexibility of working with OC, but qualified that by unintentionally (kind of) paraphrasing Spiderman’s uncle Ben: “With [great] freedom, comes [great] responsibility.”
