Why choose me
Governance in schools and charities involves navigating changing political, economic and sociological factors.
I work with institutions that recognise the importance of strong governance and risk management, helping schools and charities make sound governance decisions and challenging them to operate as efficiently and effectively as possible.
With extensive experience in governance, strategy and risk in the independent schools sector, I support clients with financial due diligence and financial modelling, risk management, strategic mergers and TPS.
I invest time in understanding what my clients want and I’m prepared to challenge them to reach defined objectives and achieve better outcomes. I think outside the box, focusing on risk and opportunity, and bring creative solutions to the table.
Outside work, I enjoy travelling, playing the drums and boxing.
