Strategic Project Management & Support
I have successfully managed and supported a series of complex and high-profile educational projects to ensure they are delivered on time, within scope and on budget. I have learnt lots of valuable lessons over the past two decades. My work has included supporting high profile projects for the Department for Education and Greater London Authority.
Let's Work Together...
​Whether leading multi-stakeholder teams, recovering delayed initiatives or supporting senior leaders through delivery cycles, I’ve successfully led and supported a wide range of complex, high-profile educational projects at local, regional and national levels. I’ve delivered results under pressure and within tight regulatory frameworks.
​These projects have spanned curriculum innovation, digital transformation, funding acquisition and organisational change — often involving multi-agency collaboration, limited budget and evolving scopes. I’ve learned the value of structured planning, agile adaptation and clear communication. From managing £500k+ government-funded programmes to developing strategy for nationwide digital rollouts, my project work is grounded in experience, resilience and a relentless focus on delivery.​ I work collaboratively with stakeholders to deliver impactful and sustainable results.

“Every great project begins with a plan but it succeeds with people. The best outcomes come not just from deadlines and deliverables, but from collaboration, communication, and a shared commitment to purpose.”
