Celebrating ES Milestones
At Eden Smith, anniversaries are about more than time - they’re about trust built, challenges navigated and impact created together.
As we celebrate a set of important milestones, including 10 years of Eden Smith, we’re proud to recognise Christa Swain, Michal Karafa and Jane Smith - three people whose journeys reflect what it really means to grow with ES.
Celebrating 5 Years at ES
Christa Swain - Director of Marketing & Operations
Over the last five years, Christa has played a defining role in how ES operates, communicates and grows - helping the business scale while staying true to its people‑first values.
From shaping our brand and community presence to strengthening the foundations that allow teams to do their best work, Christa’s impact goes far beyond marketing or operations alone. She has helped ensure that how we grow matters just as much as how fast we grow.
“Christa has been instrumental in keeping ES grounded as we’ve evolved - always balancing ambition with care for our people and community.”
Five years in, Christa continues to bring clarity, momentum and a calm sense of purpose to everything she touches - and ES is stronger for it.
Celebrating 5 Years at ES
Michal Karafa - Senior Business Intelligence & Technical Consultant
Michal’s ES journey reflects the quiet consistency and technical excellence that clients and colleagues alike rely on.
Over the past five years, he has supported organisations through complex data challenges - translating technical depth into practical outcomes, and doing so with patience, humility and teamwork.
“Michal’s strength is not just his technical capability, but the way he brings people with him - creating confidence, trust and real progress.”
As ES has grown, Michal has remained a steady presence - embodying the collaborative, outcomes‑focused approach that defines how we work with clients.



Celebrating a Longer Standing ES Journey
Jane Smith - Head of Executive Success & Communities
Jane’s journey with ES spans even further - and her impact is deeply woven into the fabric of our community.
Through building and nurturing executive communities, supporting leaders through change, and creating spaces where connection really matters, Jane has helped shape what “success” looks like at ES.
“Jane has been a constant for our community - bringing warmth, consistency and care that people remember long after individual projects end.”
Her longer term journey is a testament to the trust she’s built and the relationships she’s sustained - both internally and across the wider ES network.
