Simplifying Complex Ideas
Is your organisation facing communications challenges with stretched internal resources?
I support busy communications teams with clear thinking, creative communications and hands-on delivery.
Providing trusted, flexible interim expertise exactly when you need it.
What I do
I work with large organisations facing unexpected pressure with their communications activities.
Whether it’s for an urgent project, or as an extra pair of experienced hands, I offer creative thinking, experience and a can-do attitude. Giving you extra capacity when you need it most.
Having worked with global organisations going through intensive change and needing additional resource to focus and deliver to challenging timelines, I thrive in tackling the impossible deadlines to achieve great results.
Can you really spin another plate?
Your in-house comms team is already at capacity with the usual demands of a fast-paced organization. When another short-notice request comes in, there’s not always the resource or experience to hit the deadline while the team keeps the usual plates spinning.
That’s exactly when you can call on me: a trusted, experienced comms expert who can build relationships quickly with key stakeholders, understand the requirements and approach required, and manage production of assets, outputs and results to satisfy the most demanding senior leaders.
Whether you need a suite of creative materials, someone to handle the production of a high-profile event, annual report or video, or general support for your team, I will get the results your organisation needs.
Strategic Counsel for Your Next Transition.
With 20 years of experience supporting global brands like Barclays and AstraZeneca, I help organisations simplify the complex and lead through intensive change.
Does this sound familiar?
- Do you need additional comms support, without the commitment of an agency retainer?
- Do you need fresh ideas or a new perspective for a particular project?
- Are you managing an unexpected resource-gap while recruiting?
- Are there simply not enough hours in the day for the current demands of the business?
Communicating change on a global scale can be particularly hard. With a multi-national workforce, there’s often not a one-size-fits-all approach and the way we communicate needs careful thought and creativity.
Large, complex organisations bring a huge range of challenges, scale and personalities. I enjoy the variety this brings to my work and always relish the challenge.
