  • Episode 6: Claire Raeburn
    Jun 7 2024

    Since we recorded this episode with Claire, her role has evolved as she now leads the Product and Experience Functions at Contact Energy. Her claim to fame is doing the impossible – making energy bills understandable to regular people without accountancy diplomas.

    Previously she picked up rubbish for a local council the UK (by letting people report local messes thru a chatbot). Prior to that she looked after digital service for the UK’s largest telco (EE), winning a few “best online service” gongs in the process.
