Susannah Smith

Board Chair

Susannah is the Senior Director of Public Affairs and Communications for Coca-Cola Beverages Northeast, headquartered in Bedford.  She has held a number of sales and marketing positions within CCBNE for the past 25 years (“since I was 9 years old,” she says), before being promoted into her current role in 2021.  

Susannah joined the Board in 2016 because she is passionate about animal welfare and wanted to contribute to a cause and organization she believes in wholeheartedly. And she wanted an excuse to play with puppies.   
 
Susannah holds a degree in Communications from Boston University and an MBA from the University of New Hampshire.  In her spare time, she enjoys live music, travel, studying history, shoe shopping, and spending quality time with family and friends.  She currently resides in Merrimack with her two very spoiled rescue cats, Zuni and Khufu.
