18 years experience in senior management roles, delivering success and achieving results through building strong teams and relationships. My career to date has been in the arts, culture and non-profit sectors, in high-profile cultural institutions with multiple constituencies, communities of interest and stakeholders.In my most recent executive leadership role I had strategic responsibility for development; public affairs; marketing and communications; customer service; sales; and community and education, with a national and international remit. This built on extensive experience in fundraising and fundraising leadership.A strategic thinker, I have significant experience in organisational change and capacity building, fundraising, stakeholder relations, and talent development and management. I specialise in effective internal and external communication, making connections and developing networks.I have a particular aptitude for acquiring relevant knowledge and understanding quickly and calmly, and am interested in talking to people about how I can make a difference with specific projects and assignments.
