I am very interested in transferring the business acumen and skills I have gained from a career in Corporate Banking to the charity sector especially an organisation that would be connected to wildlife or the environment. In my last role (Asset Finance Relationship Manager) I enthusiastically supported the growth of local relationship banking in the South of England. I have enjoyed success in this arena for over 25 years working confidently with £1m to £25m turnover companies. I have excellent analytical, sales and credit skills and collaborated with colleagues to help them achieve their business goals through significant increases in deal numbers and income. Of primary importance to me is the delivery of excellent customer service by working diligently to ensure a fair deal for all parties.From a personal perspective I am passionate about the preservation of nature, and actions that help reduce climate change.
