I am a Principal at Oxbow Partners. My job is threefold.
First, I oversee the delivery of projects. I help the teams structure and push forward the project and get involved in interesting conversations with clients about how they structure their business, about the strategic options they face, or about how they can implement exciting new technology opportunities. Second, I build relationships with our clients, seeking to really understand the business questions they are struggling and how we might be able to help them. And third, I focus on building our internal team, managing a number of our consultants 1-on-1, running our training programme, and improving our consultant proposition. When I am not at work, I love to be in mountains, or at home with my sausage dog.
