Mark Mario Pavlika (aka Pav)

For the past 25 years, I have worked in the professional services industry, and for the most part within marketing and live entertainment. 

I started out in finance but after 5 years of climbing the ladder, decided to make better use of my people skills and move into a profession where I could work with people.

For approx. 20 years now, I have worked at senior level in finance and human resources and lucky to have worked at some of London’s best independent marketing agencies and global networks. My roles have included chief operating officer, finance & HR director, and from 2008 chief executive officer of my own HR outsourcing company. 

As you can imagine the learnings from each of these roles were immense, but the knowledge gained from working through some of the toughest periods in business history was invaluable. 9/11 and the 2008 Credit Crunch were both extremely volatile periods for the business world and those experiences enabled me with the insight to better manage businesses commercially whilst ensuring staff remained motivated and loyal throughout those tough times.

Since 2015, I have been a performance consultant and offer  people related services to businesses and founders that genuinely believe that their people are their most important asset and want to create safe and engaging cultures for them to work in.

People now come to me for many reasons, but mostly because they want to succeed in their life or business and need direction, or they need help with solving a problem. My own past experiences in life and my profession reassure clients that I can relate to them in some way or another, which I believe builds the all-important rapport that makes the whole experience worthwhile.
