Bio
As Chief Professional Progression Officer at APMP UK, I’m focused on helping our members grow with confidence; whether they’re just starting out or stepping into senior leadership. I’m committed to creating meaningful development pathways through mentoring, certification, and upskilling, and I believe learning should be a lifelong pursuit, not just a milestone.
With over 15 years’ experience in bid and proposal leadership, including global roles at IBM, BAE Systems, and Babcock, I’ve built and coached high-performing teams, led complex multimillion-pound pursuits, and seen first-hand the impact of investing in people. Currently serving as a Global Senior Bid and Proposal Manager, I continue to champion excellence in business winning while supporting others to unlock their potential.
A proud APMP member since 2015, I’ve benefited greatly from the organisation’s knowledge-sharing and supportive community. Prior to stepping into the Chief Professional Progression Officer role, I served as a lead volunteer within APMP UK’s Professional Development Portfolio, helping shape initiatives that support our members' development and career advancement. Practitioner and Capture-certified, I’m dedicated to elevating our profession and ensuring it’s recognised as a strategic driver of business success. My focus is on fostering environments where we learn from each other, share best practices, and build the confidence to thrive together.
