About

I’m a senior Learning & Development leader with a strong track record of designing and scaling high-impact talent, leadership, and early careers strategies that drive measurable business performance. I specialise in building modern L&D functions that align closely with organisational priorities, strengthening leadership pipelines, improving retention, and enabling sustainable growth.

Currently leading the L&D agenda at Gallagher, I partner closely with senior stakeholders and executive leaders to translate business strategy into practical, data-driven development solutions. My approach combines strategic insight, commercial awareness, and a strong focus on outcomes ensuring learning delivers tangible ROI and supports wider transformation.

Across my career, I’ve delivered significant results, including over £900k in annual cost savings through optimised delivery models, a 25% increase in client wins via a sales academy, and sustained engagement and retention of top talent at 85%. I have also designed and launched flagship programmes such as a six-month leadership development initiative and a 12-month early careers programme, onboarding 75+ apprentices and graduates to build a strong future talent pipeline.

My experience spans leadership development, succession planning, talent management, onboarding, and large-scale organisational change, including leading L&D integration across multiple mergers and acquisitions. I bring strong stakeholder engagement, executive reporting capability, and a passion for creating inclusive, scalable learning solutions that support both people and business growth.
