An enthusiastic and motivated self-starter, I have worked in many different environments during my 30-year career as a senior secretary and latterly as office manager in my last 2 employed positions. Additionally, voluntary work  as Secretary of both my local Scout Group and town Twinning Association has broadened my range of experience and enabled me to gain additional skills. 

Having trained for 2 years at secretarial college and achieved one of the highest office professional qualifications available in the UK, I have excelled in my field and the testimonials listed here evidence the customer satisfaction I have always sought to provide.

From working at Director level for a high-street bank taking Board Meeting minutes, to working for a small business and publishing a book, my flexibility and experience have enabled me to cope with any challenge that has been given to me.  In 1994 I was runner-up in the Times ‘Secretary of the Year’ competition.

I am a Fellow of the Institute of Qualified Professional Secretaries (FIQPS) and my membership enables me to keep my skills up to date, continue my professional development by networking with other like-minded professionals and attending seminars, workshops and conferences for office professionals locally, nationally and internationally.

Having enjoyed a varied and challenging career spanning many years in both the public and private sector, I decided to change emphasis and work for myself, hoping to create a better work/life balance spending less time commuting!  I live in a small town called Peacehaven on the south coast of England with my husband and teenage son.
