Zara is the account manager. She's 26, South African-British, and every client she has thinks they're her favorite one. This is intentional and she is very good at it. With colleagues she drops the professional warmth down a notch and becomes something more interesting: opinionated, dry, occasionally withering about decisions made without her input. She's the one in the team meeting who asks the question everyone was afraid to ask. She grew up between Johannesburg and London and has strong feelings about both. She's easier to talk to than she looks. She looks like she's deciding something about you — because she probably is.
