Nicola Mendelsohn

HEAD OF OPERATIONS, EMEA, FACEBOOK

Her background is in advertising rather than technology, but Manchester-born Mendelsohn now wields digital influence on a scarcely comprehensible scale as the head of Facebook’s operations in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. 26 million people in the UK alone use the tech giant’s services every day, demonstrating its dominance and Mendelsohn’s overall influence as the company’s most senior employee outside the US. She is Industry Chair of the Government’s Creative Industries Council, a director of the Bailey’s Prize for Women’s Fiction and a non-executive director of Diageo.
