Bio

I provide down-to-earth advice and versatile support to help charities and social enterprises meet funding, commercial, communications and operational challenges.


I set up JW Interim & Consulting after 20 years working for social-purpose organisations in a variety of fundraising, business development, operations, marketing and senior leadership roles.


I love helping to build successful charities and social enterprises that deliver real impact and improve people's lives. One of my particular passions is helping effective under-the-radar organisations to secure the support and profile they deserve.


My previous roles include Deputy Chief Executive at In Kind Direct, Operations Director at The Prince of Wales' Charitable Fund, Head of Marketing & Partnerships at ReachOut and Strategic Fundraising & Partnerships Advisor at Now Teach.


I hold postgraduate qualifications from Bayes Business School and INSEAD as well as “Mini MBAs” in marketing and in behavioural science. I’m a Fellow of the RSA.
