PERSONAL STATEMENT I am a seasoned dedicated Business Executive hailing from a financial background, with over 32 years' experience. After graduating in Business and Finance at what is now Plymouth University, I started working in accounts departments for 2-3 years in various small businesses, ranging from a Solicitors to Property managers and to Importer and Exporters.

At our height, we employed up to 12 Values I am values driven and work collaboratively across departments and organisations to ensure communities are at the heart of my design and delivery. I have an open-door policy and am accessible to everyone in the organisation. I work to the highest standards and am often the first one in and last to leave. I have an inclusive approach, which means I aim to ensure that inequalities are laid bare, and no one is left behind, capturing marginalised voices. I am an experienced facilitator bringing managers and workers together to develop innovative practice across departments and sectors, breaking down organisational barriers. I lead by example. I proactively seek feedback from others to support my own development and have an enabling and participative leadership style, which allows those who work with me to play to their strengths and develop new skills. I managed high performing teams/departments delivering challenging outcomes at pace, supporting them to strengthen any weaknesses to ensure customers/end users get the service they deserve.
