I’m passionate about my clients’ performance. I’ve consulted with a range of UK and Global businesses and organisations, in the private and public sectors, and in a range of settings: PE backed, MD&A, plc and limited, for over 25 years. I’ve mainly supporting clients to create a new / refreshed strategic ambition and performance through business design (business and operating model) and changes in ways of working, across culture, process and technology. I’ve lead several transformation programmes.

I’ve worked with executive and senior teams to develop the conditions to perform as a team and deliver on their goals, and worked with client’s colleagues, partners and stakeholders to build powerful alliances for change and performance.

I set up and lead Firehills Consulting, which is aimed at unlocking high performance for clients by partnering them in developing their strategy, in business design and in developing their leadership.

I am a consultant specialising in developing and implementing strategy in complex environments. Over twenty-five years, I have helped clients across both public and private sectors deal with some of their most difficult problems. This experience ranges from looking at how we can stimulate defence innovation in the UK, to transforming universities, to helping high-tech manufacturers bring the world’s best technology to patients in the health system.

I am particularly interested in how organisations can harness complex systems to achieve their strategies. This has taken me into not just strategy development but also operating model architecture and organisational design and working with leadership teams to build the alignment and skills they need to succeed. I’m excited about the work we’re doing at Firehills to build on this, helping executives and leaders see the world differently to make strategic choices that have really positive impact.

I am a Director specialising in business intelligence and technology development.

Over my career, I have worked across strategy, talent, and digital transformation, helping organisations turn complexity into actionable strategy. This experience spans from leading talent strategy and assessment initiatives for global professional services firms, to designing SaaS frameworks, to advising early-stage businesses on people strategy and organisational development.

I am particularly interested in how emerging technologies—from data platforms to large language models—can be harnessed to solve real systemic issues.  This is why we are building Furze, our first technology platform that helps organisations discover their true capability and how to use differently it in a complex world.

I am a consultant and analyst specialising in strategy, project management and research and my experience spans across commercial and third-sector environments. I have a background in the financial sector, working as a risk analyst for a wealth management fund developing automated risk reporting systems, as well as a project manager for a Glasgow-based charity where I helped lead their expansion planning. I am also certified in PRINCE2 and Agile project management methodologies.  

A graduate of The University of Glasgow and Rotterdam School of Management, I studied Business Management and International Business. This blend of analytical rigour and hands-on delivery has given me a strong foundation in turning complex challenges into practical solutions. 

I'm passionate about the work we're doing to help organisations understand complexity and make strategic decisions that create meaningful change.
