Quick off the Mark
With over two decades of experience in the insurance market, I’ve built a reputation as a highly respected HR professional and trusted advisor within the financial services sector. My career spans roles as a Global Chief People Officer, Transformation Director, and now as a sought-after consultant for insurance businesses and private equity firms facing critical challenges.
My expertise lies in navigating complex, high-stakes scenarios—whether it’s steering organisations through regulatory scrutiny, managing crises, or driving large-scale transformations. I thrive in environments where precision, resilience, and strategic leadership are essential, helping businesses meet demanding regulatory expectations and deliver tangible outcomes.
I regularly collaborate with private equity firms, bridging the gap between equity stakeholders and portfolio organisations. From M&A activity to addressing people-focused challenges, I bring clarity and a solutions-driven approach to every engagement.
What sets me apart? A deep technical understanding of HR, compliance, and risk—combined with a strong network and an ability to lead teams in even the most challenging circumstances. Whether advising Boards, managing HR transformations, or resolving complex employee relations issues, my focus is always on delivering results that align with both business and regulatory goals.
As a qualified mediator, coach, and mental health practitioner, I bring a unique perspective to leadership and team dynamics. I am a strong leader known for my accountability, delivery and integrity. My background in HR, as a coach and mental health first aid trainer informs my empathetic and resilient approach to problem-solving.
When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time beachcombing with my family and our dogs, travelling to new places, and experimenting in the kitchen.
