Hannah Wickes

I’m Hannah - a career coach, board executive and startup advisor. For five years I worked as Chief Marketing Officer for Ecosia, Germany’s first B-Corp and one of Europe's largest social businesses. With an incredible team I grew its green search products to 20 million users globally. This community has funded the planting and landscape restoration of +200 million trees.

Prior to working in climate, I held roles in business development, growth and marketing at Trivago, and saw the company’s journey from startup stages to IPO.

My career had its beginnings in broadcast journalism and production. With roles at the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, including triple j, I produced shows, podcasts and video content listened to and watched by millions of Australian music lovers.

Now I work as a board executive, advisor and career coach. I am an ongoing advisor to World Fund VC, who closed Europe's largest climate tech fund in 2024. I also advise founders through Blackbird VC and Village Capital.

My non executive director roles include non profits like the Joint Council for the Welfare of Immigrants, UK Community Foundations, the Scottish Fair Trade Forum and Impress: the media regulator. I also hold board and advisory positions with startups like Treecard and Stead.

In 2023 I started working as a career coach, helping people grow in their roles, scale impact and navigate career change across countries and sectors. My mission is to help you unlock opportunity, clarity and impact. Want to find out more about how coaching works? Schedule a call.
