Lydia Jakubek

Associate Lead

At home
I’ve been married to my wonderful husband Jürgen for 11 years and we have two beautiful children. The eldest is Aiden who is 11 years old, he is an avid writer and has an artistic streak. Mia is our lively 4-year-old daughter who loves getting messy, playing pretend games and lives life to the full. I also love to bake and decorate cakes and did that professionally for a while too.

At work
My role involves managing our client lists and social media accounts. Occasionally I support other projects and research. It is an absolute delight being part of the team and contributing to something that is truly unique and special.

Greatest Achievements
Being a mother to my wonderful children is my greatest achievement, but also becoming a British citizen in 2018, being awarded best student in Afrikaans at university and creating a bespoke luxury 4 tier wedding cake for a wedding of more than 120 people.

“Emigrating from South Africa to England was a huge, life-changing decision and it’s been a journey of ups and some downs, but I will never regret it or trade it for anything else.”
