Prior to her time at Afterpay Aristidopoulos also held senior executive roles at NewsCorp, Fairfax Media, CommSec and FOXTEL where she was recognised for her ability to deliver digital transformation programs to defend brands facing disruption while also designing customer experience strategies to fuel innovation and disruption.

She also currently sits on the global advisory board of travel insurance provider Freely and is an independent advisor to financial services firm Wilsons.

"Mad Paws is an impressive fast growing digital marketplace and trusted brand serving the needs of a loyal community of pet owners and care providers," says Aristidopoulos.
