Services offered

A senior Executive Assistant and Business Operations Partner with 10+ years’ experience enabling CEOs and founders to scale ventures, optimise operations, and deliver strategic outcomes. Known for building infrastructure from the ground up, driving cross-functional delivery, and serving as a trusted advisor in high-growth environments.

I began my career as a PA while travelling Australia, quickly discovering a genuine passion for enabling others to succeed through building trust and providing structure & thoughtful support. Since returning to London in 2013, I’ve built a reputation for stepping into complexity and making things work, from partnering with senior executives across multiple high-growth ventures to deliver seamless support while scaling operations and launching new markets, to designing intuitive systems and onboarding frameworks that drove operational efficiency, spearheading DE&I initiatives that shaped inclusive cultures, and organising high-profile stakeholder events that strengthened strategic relationships

For over a decade, I partnered with the same Executive across multiple ventures, consistently taking ownership beyond traditional EA duties to deliver investor decks, build remote teams, and lead operational delivery. Following a rewarding period of self-employment supporting founders and building operational systems, I’m now ready to commit to a long-term role where I can contribute fully, build strong relationships, and help shape the success of a growing business.

Approximate rate: £ 50 per hour

Experience

With over a decade of experience supporting senior leadership, I am a highly trusted, strategic partner who enables CEOs and executive teams to operate at their highest level. I bring extensive experience in business operations, cross-functional project delivery, board-level reporting, and executive enablement, with a particular strength in startup and scale-up environments. Having worked with the same CEO across multiple ventures over 10 years, I am relied upon to translate vision into strategy, strategy into action, and action into measurable results.

I amplify the impact of the people I support, reducing executive burden, anticipating needs, solving problems before they arise, and building the structures, systems, and relationships that support long-term business success. My hybrid experience as an EA, Business Manager, and Operations Leader makes me uniquely positioned to step into a Chief of Staff or Senior EA roles that requires both operational awareness and strategic foresight.
