A highly motivated individual who has worked in large organisations of the diagnostics and pharmaceutical industry, and more recently the not for profit environmental sector. With over 20 years experience in Operations, my career has evolved into project management and leadership roles which enable my key strengths to flourish; organisation and working with people. Driven to perform to the highest quality standards with a positive outlook and enthusiastic approach, I have integrated business processes and systems, championed improvements and problem solving, and effectively managed teams through times of both adversity and success.Open to learning and achieving; as demonstrated by part time studies and qualifications gained, career opportunities taken and making the most of every situation my career has presented.Adept at collaborating with a variety of people; in a managerial context, peer groups and a senior stakeholder environment, one of my core strengths is influencing and connecting with business partners to work together on a collective objective.Passionate about diversity and inclusion; committed to a fair and equal work environment for all. Engaged in corporate initiatives to support Women in the workplace, a member of the Healthcare Business Women's Assosciation and an Ally to marginalised groups both inside and outside of the workplace.Outside of work? It was a love of nature which led me into the science industry; something I still embrace to this day. I love being outdoors and enjoying our garden, and I am obsessed with house plants! I try to engage my daughters Ivy & Coral with the world around them and learn new things myself all the time. I keep active by running outdoors and exploring the abundant beauty in and around Kent which keeps me well both physically and mentally. It also provides opportunity to indulge in another passion – outdoor photography.I love to read whenever I can find a spare moment and tend to have two books on the go at any one time – always a fiction to get lost in and a non-fiction developmental read that I can pick up, increasing my resilience one page at a time. I also play the guitar, badly.
