What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build and lead high-touch client services, partnerships, and operations where discretion, commercial judgement, and exceptional delivery for high-value clients matter.

I founded 888 Concierge, a global HNW and UHNW client services and advisory business delivering bespoke travel, private dining, event access, and lifestyle solutions. I onboarded eight retainer clients in my first six months and built partnerships with private jet operators, Michelin-starred restaurants, and boutique hotels.

Previously, I managed key client accounts and bespoke proposals at Making Numbers, while building Futurescope Sports Management around athlete representation, contract negotiation, brand partnerships, and international club relationships. My work has included coordinating VIP travel and accommodation for athletes across international tournaments.

I began in financial services at Lloyds Bank, where I managed client accounts, transactions, customer enquiries, and regulatory compliance. I bring commercial judgement, discretion, relationship-led execution, and experience building operational frameworks for high-value clients.
