I wanted to work as a Portfolio Executive because I have a desire to work with and impact a variety of organisations across multiple sectors and in different roles. Helping businesses to deliver on their potential and overcome the day to day or longer-term strategic challenges. Working with businesses within one of my sectors of expertise enabled me to build up the skill sets and methodologies to operate as a portfolio executive as opposed to operating in a full time and permanent role.

My first success was unblocking the route to market in a challenging sector across Europe. This was followed by working with an international CEO whom had run out of time to identify the Urgent from the Important – Here I stepped in as the functional lead across two departments to steady the business, build capability within the team and create space for decision making.

I love the enjoyment of working and helping multiple businesses across a variety of sectors, it is exciting, challenging and rewarding. As I look forward to the future I want to be simplifying businesses so that not only are there good work life balances, but also great decisions on the right areas of focus – so time, money and resources are not wasted.
