About Antanina Severdiajeva

Originally from Lithuania, I moved to London after completing my BA at Kaunas University of Technology. After spending the first few years getting on my feet and mastering various English accents, I got my first 9 to 5 job at a big events company which was looking for a Russian-speaking operations executive. Seven years later, after travelling to most of the CIS countries, including Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan, I got bored and ended up moving to Dubai where we had just opened a new office. That’s when I was headhunted (thanks LinkedIn!) by another company. This year will mark my 10th anniversary with my company. During this time, I have changed multiple roles – from operations to event marketing to digital marketing and my current SEO & Analytics role.

I have three adopted furbabies – two cats and a dog. Cats mostly prefer the comfort of the couch, but my dog and I love spending time in the mountains and you can find us hitting the trail almost every weekend. Every Sunday I volunteer at the Stray Dogs Center – a home to almost 1,300 dogs.
