Mearns & Gill | Kirsten Hume Bio

Team Bio

  • Greatest achievement:

    My career pathway so far – I’m very proud of some of the events I’ve got to support with such as BBC Sports Personality of the Year, Offshore Europe, OPITO Global, but also events I’ve got to manage such as the BrewDog AGM.

  • Words of wisdom:

    Your energy introduces you before you even speak.

  • Go to snack:

    Anything with sugar, probably more specifically strawberry laces. I have already been told I am the feeder of the AM corner of the office – I like snacks.

  • Unpopular opinion:

    Bacon is so overhyped, unless it’s super crispy and you can snap it, I’m not eating it.

  • Your Karaoke Song:

    Biology by Girls Aloud…or any other Girls Aloud song, for that matter.

  • What’s the best bit of advice you’ve ever been given?

    ‘Even on your worst days, you’re still moving forward’.

  • What’s your most-used emoji?

    🫨

  • If you weren’t a Account Manager, what would you be?

    I like to try and convince myself that I could work in the emergency services…but then I remember literally everything makes me cry – so I’m not sure that would have ever worked out!

  • What’s your AM superpower:

    Calm under chaos – I believe the saying is look like a swan above the water but paddle super-fast under the water.

  • Best tool for staying organised:

    EVERYTHING goes into the calendar – reminders, appointments (personal and business), tasks.

  • Dream client, and why:

    Anything food related – I loved working in the food and drink industry, and food brings people together and creates a special community.
