Wiebke works for an international insurance company in London with very interesting remote-friendly policies in place for their employeers. Wiebke has nearly 18 years’ experience working in the insurance industry. She deals with commercial debts incurred by overseas buyers and how to recover them, amicably and legally, and to work to navigate clients through the various minefields that can make export overdues difficult. Although Wiebke is in full-time employment, she has both significant experience and an interesting approach to working remotely for a remote-friendly company.
