Programme Lead
I lead complex programmes that position companies, build capability, scale impact and deliver practical outcomes. Leveraging decades of experience in programme strategy, design, resourcing, planning, management, and the strategic oversight of implementation alongside hands-on delivery. My focus is ensuring programmes are well-governed, efficiently run within timeframes and budgets, and responsive to sector needs.
Case studies are available on request.

Translating organisational ambition into coherent, delivery-ready programmes, with clearly defined objectives, outcomes and measures of success.
My approach is sector-led and adaptive, ensuring programmes remain responsive as needs and priorities shift.

End-to-end oversight across complex work streams for effective governance, realistic timelines, well-aligned resourcing and consistent quality assurance.

Creating clarity around roles, priorities and decision-making, providing effective management and support for teams. This fosters collaboration and high performance, while enabling knowledge-sharing and ongoing professional development.

Developing and managing strategic partnerships to extend reach and impact, serving as a senior point of contact for the programme.

Using data, feedback and insight to evaluate programme effectiveness, reporting on outcomes, learning and value for money. This evidence informs continuous iteration, strengthening programme design and long-term impact.
Brand and Content
I offer a lean approach to establishing scalable brand and content ecosystems for entities and ventures at every stage, from early idea, planning and launch, growth, and long-term resilience.
As a seasoned small business owner, I understand the need to work flexibly and cost-efficiently, adapting process and pace to the needs and preferences of each programme.

Defining what you do, the value this brings and how this creates distinction and places you apart from your competition. A strategic foundation of your brand that informs messaging and experience that could be a simple, finite product or service offering, or it could be the architecture of a scalable portfolio of products and services.
-
How you position your products or services to your markets in a way that allows flexibility as you evolve your offering and grow your business. Identifying the perceptual impression and influence your brand will have on its audience, how it differentiates and the space it owns in the competitive landscape .
-
The intangible qualities and characteristics of your business come together to form the creative criteria for your brand’s visual identity. Rather than a rigid or finite system, brand identity is a flexible, organic ecosystem of visual and verbal assets that evolves and scales with the business, consistently expressing its position, proposition, purpose, and personality across all digital, print and experiential touch points.

I set up basic Squarespace and Shopify websites and online stores to serve as brand positioning platforms. We look at the information architecture, the desired user experience, and we detail all content requirements and decide on the means of content creation. We also define the filing structure for assets and content so that you can manage this with ease after our project is complete. I also collaborate with developers on the design and UX of custom builds.
-
We identify the narratives and themes that best tell your brand story and deliver the greatest value to your audience, then develop creative, shareable assets to bring them to life. These may include blogs, explainer or introductory videos, campaigns, social content, and wider marketing streams. We plan the content strategy, define the design and messaging frameworks, and deliver production-ready assets.
