Tanya Layzell-Payne

Managing Director, Becca Europe
When Becca established its European HQ in London in 2024, Tanya Layzell-Payne was the right person to take its reins.

With over two decades of experience spanning both music and hospitality, Tanya brings to Becca a unique blend of creative leadership, strategic expertise and a deep passion for brand building. She launched Gerber Communications in 2009, a London-based integrated marketing agency focused on the hospitality and lifestyle sectors. Under her leadership, Gerber played a pivotal role in growing now-iconic brands such as JKS Restaurants, Caravan, Angela Hartnett, KOL, Skye Gyngell, Big Mamma and Wahaca.
