Employment History

Testimonials

A comprehensive knowledge of her area

In my role as Systems Support for the Mail on Sunday I frequently needed Sarah’s help. Sarah was at the helm of a rapidly growing operation – from a small department it turned into the biggest online news site in the world. She managed that change and kept the wheels on. Despite that, she was always approachable, always helpful, with a comprehensive knowledge of her area and the demands of ours. We always knew that if we needed help, she would be there for us and that she would do the job well. A loss to Associated and a massive gain for Hong Kong.

Achieving results and getting the job done

Sarah Graham is one of the nicest, most genuine people I have worked with, and I think I speak for the majority of Mail Online in saying that.
She knew how to communicate well with everyone whilst still achieving results and getting the job done.
I will miss working with her, but at the same time wish her all the best in whatever she does in life.

A real grafter who knows her trade

Sarah is one of the nicest, most loyal and efficient people I have ever worked with. I worked with her for 6 years at MailOnline and we got through some very tough times. I cannot recommend her enough, a real grafter who knows her trade, someone you can really rely on, especially when the chips are down.

Creative, driven and extremely professional

Sarah is a talented journalist with a passion for breaking news and the online medium. She has considerable and proven experience leading the editorial team on a pressure-driven website and has worked closely with technical and design to take the lead on an industry-leading redesign. She is calm under pressure, a pleasure to work with, creative, driven and extremely professional.

Focused on delivery and getting results

Immense experience and knowledge of the media industry

I worked with Sarah at Associated Newspapers for the best part of 10 years, during this time Sarah was very approachable, helpful and organised. Sarah has immense experience and knowledge of the media industry, in particular the demanding online digital operation and during Sarah’s time she displayed her ability to work under extreme pressure and meeting targets.
Sarah’s absence has been noticed, however I believe that Sarah will succeed in any future position and I would highly recommend her as a trustworthy and dedicated employee.
