Annette Buss
Member – Local College Board
As a member of the Ashford Economic Development Group (AEDG), a Director of RIFT Social Enterprise and a Director of Kennedys Accounting, Annette has a wide-ranging background that encompasses banking and business management, development and support.
Her career has seen her working with numerous companies over the years, applying her hard-won practical and realistic approach to everything from energetic start-ups to Community Interest Companies.
Her expertise is both broad-based and intensive and features the vital first-hand experience of establishing and developing a successful company required to fully understand the need to work on – and not just in – a business.
Away from work, Annette’s other successful and fast-growing projects have included two now-adult children and an unconventionally three-legged cat.
Passionate about people, talent and innovative enterprise, she’s excited to have this opportunity to support the college, the community and both new and existing businesses.
We’re part of six community-based colleges
