“I’m the Chief Operating Officer here at Swanson Buck, now heading into my sixth year with the organisation. What excites me most about the role is the incredible variety, no two days are ever the same. I get to work with such a diverse range of clients, and I’m constantly on the move, problem-solving, planning and collaborating. It’s a fast-paced environment, which suits me perfectly. There’s a real sense of purpose in what we do, and being part of a team that’s genuinely committed to making a difference keeps me energised and motivated every day.

“Swanson Buck was a no-brainer for me. After finishing my master’s, I found myself at a bit of a crossroads. Do I go into engineering and use my degrees? Do I head into finance? The charity sector wasn’t something I imagined myself going into when I was in school, but once you’re in it, it’s hard to imagine doing anything else. I had the opportunity to work with Swanson Buck during both my undergraduate and postgraduate studies, and in many ways, I’ve grown alongside the business. I’ve been able to develop professionally while watching our client base and impact grow, and that’s been incredibly rewarding.

“One of my proudest moments? Completing Tough Mudder earlier this year. It was a real test of grit and team spirit, and something I’ll always look back on with pride.

“If you can’t reach me, there’s a good chance I’m out running with my big golden retriever, Teddy, or grabbing a coffee, often both! I’m always on the go and thrive when I’m busy and outdoors.”
