I help women overcome work-related barriers and to challenge the status quo, so they can lead enriched, happy and fulfilled lives. What are these barriers? They are internal (such as lack of confidence, or self-belief) and external (such as returning to work after maternity leave, negotiating flexible work or a pay rise). I also work with businesses to help them challenge existing workplace barriers and biases, by providing training and workshops.
I’m the Founder of The Women’s Vault, a published writer and communications specialist. I’m on a mission to help more women overcome workplace barriers and help guide businesses on how best to support their employees, including with wellbeing and development, women's progression into leadership roles and working parents.
My clients are based all over the world and work at global companies including Amazon, Deloitte, the NHS, Nuffield Health and major law firms. I have delivered workshops and programmes to many companies.
My background: I was an Executive Advisor for 15 years in the banking and finance industry. In 2019, I returned to work after maternity leave to a bigger role on a compressed hours contract, and was met with many personal and professional challenges. This is what inspired me to create The Women's Vault - to take a 'combined' approach to help women stay in the workplace, despite the challenges we face, and to help businesses to support one of their most precious assets - their employees.
My purpose is to help you ‘vault’ forwards in your career, whilst being able to have balance. I help my individual clients to achieve landmarks, like returning to work after maternity leave, promotions, dream jobs, career changes, pay rises and finally to be confident without feeling like an imposter. I also help my clients with skills such as public speaking and presentations. At The Women's Vault, you'll find a place to connect with other like-minded professionals.
