My experience
I bring over 20 years’ experience working within professional services environments, including more than a decade supporting lawyers and business leaders in leading law firms. In these roles, I provided a broad range of senior administrative support, working at the centre of fast-moving, client-focused client work.
Earlier in my career, I held front of house and administrative roles in prestigious organisations, where I developed strong foundations in client service, organisational coordination, and professional communication.
I understand what it takes to structure workflow so a team can deliver to the highest level of client service internationally. I get excited by solving challenges so our clients experience the greatest value we can provide.
What it’s like to work with me
I take a calm and flexible approach to my work and pride myself on offering reliable, supportive assistance. Building strong relationships is very important to me, and I will invest time getting to know our clients to understand what excellent service means to them.
I am always happy to go above and beyond to ensure people feel supported and will keep pushing the boundaries of how we deliver for you internationally.
