What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build commercially useful climate and sustainability work through client-facing programme delivery, financial modelling, and operational problem-solving.

At Climate Connection, I manage end-to-end programmes spanning finance, operations, and bespoke climate events, balancing four to six active workstreams under commercial deadlines.

I’ve built financial, pricing, risk, and P&L models that informed sales strategy, contract negotiations, and executive decisions, including a £145,000 Innovate UK renewal. I also created a centralised Notion CRM, migrating 5,000+ records and cutting manual input by 80% through Zapier automation.

I enjoy uncovering what clients actually need and translating it into practical delivery. My work combines stakeholder conversations, event execution, and analytical problem-solving in climate and sustainability.
