Helping young people find their thing.

Will studied Civil Engineering despite his interest in Carpentry, after scoring higher on his final exams than expected. After seeing first-hand how a lack of career support can impact young people, he started a blog, called Year13, with co-founder Saxon, to try and help those around them figure out what to do with their life.

Saxon never took a straight path. After finishing school, like most, he struggled with the societal pressures of “having to know exactly what he wanted to do” with his life at 17. Experiencing this firsthand became his superpower realizing that it’s experience, not certainty, that gives people confidence and self-growth.

Gigi started college out of obligation, not calling, and left early to chase real-world experiences and find her thing. What she discovered was an instinct for building brands and operationalizing ideas into systems that work. With 15 years across sales, strategy, and operations, she now helps emerging companies scale with precision and momentum.

Harry spent about three minutes deciding what to do after school. He liked the idea of making ads, studied Marketing, and quickly learned advertising wasn’t really his thing. That detour led him across roles and industries, and now as General Manager at Anyway, he brings strategy, creativity, and people together to make ideas happen.

Lillian’s career went from film sets to fighter jets, as she zig-zagged from film & media to innovation consultancy for the Air Force. She then found her passion in the higher ed sector - helping young people find the pathway that’s right for them. Now as Head of Marketing at Anyway, she’s on a mission to help as many young people as possible find their thing.

Nick dropped out of a selective school, tried five different majors, and then collected more job titles than he can remember at Atlassian as one of its early employees. After co-founding CodeBarrel (later acquired by Atlassian), he learned retirement wasn’t for him. Now CPO at Anyway, he works a the heart of where creativity meets technology to make real impact.

Tash dropped out of three degrees before realizing her thing wasn’t in the lecture hall; it was out in the world, turning ideas into reality. Now Chief of Staff to Anyway’s co-founders, she keeps things moving, clears the noise, and makes sure the big ideas actually happen.

Mark found early enjoyment in building RPG worlds in high school, even writing turn-based games in Pascal. As the internet kicked off in ’96, tech felt like the natural place for his curiosity and creativity to land. That early mix of exploration and problem-solving has permeated his working life and now sees him leading Anyway’s tech team as CTO.

After starting out at one of London’s top grammar schools, Pippa decided college wasn’t for her and jumped straight into work. Now Head of Talent for Anyway in the US, she builds people strategies, shapes culture, and helps scale high-performing teams, along the way learning what great hiring really looks like.

Pirow was kind of obsessed with becoming an Architect, though with considerable encouragement he rather fell into Finance by way of first studying Information Systems Design (what even is that?). Determined to not be an Accountant, Pirow later found his groove in Analytics, which ultimately landed him in Strategy & Planning.
