Management consultant blending user research and data analysis to drive growth.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Management Consultant with a people-centric approach, combining Project Management, User Research, and Data Analysis to turn complex information into clear, actionable outcomes. Across fast-paced start-ups and large global organizations, I’ve helped teams deliver high-impact work by aligning stakeholders, mapping workflows, and extracting insight from data.
In my current role at Woodhurst Consulting, I collaborate with clients to integrate fintech solutions into legacy systems, lead market and customer analysis for growth opportunities, and trial AI workflows to optimise internal delivery. Previously at Capgemini Invent, I conducted and analysed user research across alpha and beta stages and led cross-programme collaboration forums using RAID to keep project visibility high.
