Members

Welcome. Here you will find a full list of active members who are part of the premier peer-to-peer support club known as The Director’s Hub. Any questions about membership should be made to hub leaders Sonny Cutting, Jayna Shah, Mina O’Brien and Wesley Atkinson.

We currently have 33 members across four hubs in the Sussex region and we’re about to add 3 more later in the year for 2023.

We’re very fortunate to have such a wealth of industry sector Directors, Founders, Business Owners, and Top Level Management CEOs and MDs in the group that hub leaders now get exclusivity of the hub that they manage, and they also have a direct say in WHO joins their hub.
