I have enjoyed an enthralling career in trade finance in London and most recently working in development finance throughout Asia. My roles have focused on the identification, management and growth of long-term customer relationships from market scoping to the implementation of facilities that meet client needs. Driven by high professional standards, collaborative in approach and with excellent communication and presentation skills, I am regarded as a trusted adviser by customers, partners and colleagues alike.Other specializations include influencing and determining policy; structuring and negotiating legal documentation; leading training courses, participating in conferences and other publicity events; and engaging in staff mentorship. I am also interested in supporting graduates in their transition to the workplace by assisting with their career choices, including working overseas, and preparing them for job applications and interviews.
