With a rich background in retail, property management, and higher education, I bring over three decades of diverse experience to my role. My journey has seen me wear various hats at Teesside University, where I honed my skills in business support services, including procurement. Holding senior leadership positions has given me a unique perspective on organisational growth and the ability to handle complex challenges with ease.
My academic credentials include a Business Degree from Northumbria University and an MBA, complemented by PRINCE2 certification. This combination has armed me with a robust understanding of business operations, strategic planning, and project management.
Today, I apply my expertise to assist a variety of commercial and charity clients across the UK, predominantly in the North East of England. My mission is to leverage my knowledge and experience to help organisations flourish, whether they’re businesses, social enterprises, or charities. I’m passionate about fostering growth and driving success for these organisations, and I look forward to collaborating with those seeking to amplify their impact.
What started as me in the armchair of my front room has, far sooner than I ever imagined, grown into a team. Our rapid growth means I now have the privilege of working alongside the incredible people I would love to introduce you to below.

We’d had poor feedback on tenders, but now we score really highly and often get comments like ‘one of the best we’ve seen in a long time’.

Having someone who understands your business and writes as if they are part of your team makes a huge difference. It helps you feel less daunted by the amount of paperwork involved in tendering.

No matter what we’ve needed, Swanson Buck has it, whether that’s a menopause policy or a disaster recovery plan. Just amazing.

What would we do without you.

We’ve gone from surviving on fumes to actually having oxygen.

The Measuring the Good exercise really helped us focus on what we do best and stick to it.

Having someone understand the business and write like they work for you makes a huge difference in making you feel less daunted by the immense amount of paperwork involved in tendering.
