Third Bridge award winner - Gabriela Henault
LONDON, UK June 2026 — Third Bridge is delighted to announce that our Chief Marketing Officer, Gabriela Henault, has been named in Management Today’s prestigious Women in Leadership Power List for 2026. This highly respected accolade celebrates the UK’s most visionary, effective, and inspirational female leaders who have demonstrated an exceptional impact on key business metrics and organizational transformation.
Gabriela’s inclusion recognizes a distinguished 20-year career driving brand and commercial excellence across global markets. Since joining Third Bridge, she has fundamentally transformed the Marketing function, shifting it from a traditional support role into a high-value, strategic, and revenue-generating engine that drives core business growth.
“Gabriela has achieved something rare in high-growth firms: she has turned the Marketing department into the Commercial team’s greatest ally," said Mike Grubert, Managing Director at Third Bridge. "What stands out most is how Gabriela has garnered operationalized 'trust'. By encouraging our commercial leaders to lead with authentic expertise rather than polished corporate brochures, she has fundamentally changed the quality of our initial client conversations. We now see a direct line from marketing activity to 'closed won' opportunities in our pipeline."
Emmanuel Tahar, Chief Executive Officer at Third Bridge, added: "Gabriela has had a considerable and transformative impact on our marketing as a whole. Beyond metrics, her mentorship has accelerated the professional development and internal visibility of her team members, forging the next generation of industry talent."
A trilingual executive fluent in English, French, and Spanish, Gabriela’s expertise spans brand strategy, digital transformation, and talent marketing. Proving that leadership and resilience extend beyond the corporate boardroom, Gabriela is a former Spanish national ice-skating champion, and a guest lecturer at London Business School.
Management Today’s Women in Leadership Power List is judged by a distinguished panel of peers, including leaders from some of the largest businesses in the UK. Alumnae and honorees represent the definitive cohort of female business leaders breaking barriers and driving corporate excellence.
