After achieving her Certificate for Secretarial Linguists in French and German at college, Shelley started her career as an Executive Assistant working initially in the advertising and fashion industries in London. She then travelled extensively throughout Asia spending two years working in event management and telecommunications in Hong Kong.

Shelley has been with the company for over 18 years, joining TPP in 2005 as an Executive Assistant, and now holds the position of Head of Office Administration, responsible for all the HR and Office Management for the company.
