Partnerships

I have a proven ability to develop and manage partnerships that deliver results. My approach focuses on building authentic, mutually beneficial relationships through clear communication, flexibility, and understanding the needs of all parties.

Whether securing funding, engaging communities, or leading collaborative initiatives, I excel at engaging diverse stakeholders, and managing complex relationships whilst balancing deadlines and aspirational goals.

This approach has led to impactful collaborations, including with universities, national broadcasters, funders, grassroots organisations and local, regional and national government.  

Case study: When troubleshooting a place-based programme, I worked with stakeholders ranging from grassroots community groups to local charities, the council and major funders. An ability to appreciate the different motivations and communication styles for each was key to engagement and meant I was able to facilitate productive dialogue where efforts had previously stalled.
