A bit more about Fiona
Your trusted partner
I’ve spent much of my career working at senior level across complex, regulated and purpose-led organisations. I've helped leaders get clear on what they’re trying to achieve, align their marketing and communications, and make confident decisions about how their organisation moves forward.
A key part of my career was spent at W. L. Gore & Associates, whose culture strongly influenced how I like to work. It reinforced the importance of trust, clarity and thoughtful challenge. And it created space for people to think well, contribute fully and take responsibility for decisions, rather than rushing to activity.
Continual learning has been a consistent thread throughout my career. I hold postgraduate degrees in Marketing, in Corporate Communications & Public Affairs, and in 2025 I completed the Professional Diploma in Digital Marketing. I'm also a member of the Chartered Institute of Marketing.
Outside of work...you'll usually find me walking or training my Springer Spaniels, or pressing apple juice from my small orchard to raise funds for Marie Curie. And sometimes, if I'm lucky, I play the odd round of golf!
