Stakeholder & social value professional with 10+ years in community engagement and public affairs for business, public sector & not-for-profit sectors.
I have worked for 10+ years in community engagement and public affairs for business, public sector & not-for-profit bodies. With a background in charitable, grant-making and community development organisations, I have undertaken in-house and external consultancy on corporate philanthropy for major companies including community benefit funds for renewable wind & solar developers. I also developed the social value strategy on a £1.3bn regional UK & Scottish Government Growth Deal to drive tangible benefits for communities, regional skills and employability programmes from major public sector infrastructure projects. Prior to joining NatPower I was UK Group Social Value Lead at a Tier 1 construction, engineering, and facilities management firm. I am passionate about the responsibility and opportunity that organisations of all industries have to deliver meaningful, needs-driven change for people, places and planet.
