For over 25 years I have had the privilege to provide information products, specialist advice and decision-support to senior executives in many leading organisations facing major external challenge. They appreciated the value of insightful, robust and timely analysis to help their managers take better commercial decisions.
A business economist, and MBA, I have worked in telecommunications’ strategy throughout Europe; held a senior management role in finance and planning in the water industry; spent several years as a regulator at the heart of UK financial services and managed a public service organisation in uncertain times. So I know the complexities and sheer effort needed to stay abreast of changing tariffs, suppliers, technology, regulations and market practice in order to manage essential business overheads successfully. And, frankly, if this is not your core mission why would you try? Outsourcing this work to specialists, even on the back of existing initiatives, can present the best chance to drive down costs sustainably, and free-up hard-pressed internal resources to focus on running the business.
With this experience, these analytical skills and expert knowledge, my clients can expect savings opportunities to be identified and evaluated rapidly; agreed solutions to be implemented in a timely and effective way, and costs to be managed quietly and diligently on a continuous basis.
