About Gail Baird

With a blue-chip pedigree in marketing communications from some of the most demanding corporations; commended teaching and learning skills in education; first class academic qualifications in design and extensive experience of establishing successful businesses, I would be a positive addition to most teams.From working across different industries and with a whole host of different personnel, I have developed excellent communication and client-facing skills - at all levels. These skills enable me to understand our partners' needs and develop collaborative working relationships through active listening, critical thinking and problem solving.Being well organised and efficient improves my productivity and decision making, allowing space and time for exploration and growth both in my own professional development and my field of work. I am curious and inquisitive; responsible and honest; persuasive and perceptive. These are attributes that I apply in my roles with the Sustainable Conservation Trust and Tricorn Books, and that serve me well in life.
