Pia Kirkland

Pia came to English shores from sunny Sydney in 2014. Whilst she’s worked across a range of strategy development projects, she’s become especially interested in business war-gaming. At Cognosis, she’s particularly enjoyed seeing the impact that her work has had on clients beyond the numbers, focusing on how you change mindsets in big companies.

After starting her career in marketing at Pernod Ricard, she moved to the strategy team at Accenture for two years. During her time there, she worked across a broad range of industries with projects involving marketing strategy, customer experience design, business case creation and operational effectiveness.

A regular tennis player and fortunate enough to be living around the corner from a couple of courts, Pia’s always active. Aside from the more reserved nature of Londoners, she’s found the city a perfect fit; there’s always something to explore, see or eat.
