What Our Clients Think
Nigel led a large team of field sales account managers and negotiated multi-million-pound supply contracts with some of the UKs largest construction companies, including Taylor Wimpey, Persimmon and Mace. His skills in people management and commercial acumen were highly valued.
Caroline has superb people skills, is suitably diplomatic when needed and direct in proposing solutions to challenges and issues. Caroline has the clarity and strategic insight that comes with many years of experience and the ability to draw on the expertise of people around her.
I welcomed Caroline’s focus on data and evidence when assessing investments and return of those investments.
Nigel advised us how to build an ambitious business and sales plan that will take Arvia Technology from a university spin out with minimal sales to £9.2M sales and enable our vision of £100M turnover and global market leadership in tertiary water management over the coming years.
He applied his pro-active relationship management skills effectively within our customer base and supply chain. He led and supported opportunity development with global chemical, pharmaceutical and food and beverage customers.
Caroline greatly enhanced the management and organisation of the whole range of teams and opened our eyes to new approaches. Our student recruitment campaign was highly successful resulting in Keele showing one of the highest growth levels in 2015.
Nigel represents all our values - ethical, professional and with an expertise that helps businesses grow. It has been a pleasure working with him.
Caroline immediately got to grips with the role, making necessary changes to the department. Both student recruitment and our external profile increased.
Nigel has excellent sales skills from cold calling to sale closure and aftercare. He is a strong sales leader and an innovative professional, capable of adding value in many areas of a business. A high-level thinker at a strategic level with the skills to do the work required and a great ability to adapt to the current market and changing conditions.
Nigel would be a great asset to any business looking to build a strong sales strategy to drive new sales opportunities and achieve growth.
Caroline is a very experienced Higher Education marketing specialist and brings the benefit of having worked as an interim at a wide range of universities.
It was a pleasure working with Caroline in the past as she is the ultimate marketing professional.
Nigel planned and executed an outstanding business transformation programme with multiple sub-projects which were delivered on time and to budget. We needed to build a commercial project management infrastructure in a rapidly growing business and in a complex market with significant governance requirements. Nigel liaised with multiple teams with confidence and enthusiasm, developed critical project management skills within multiple departments and, as a result, the company has become a much stronger and more professional organisation.
I’ve worked with Caroline in two businesses and quite different projects. In both her experience, marketing knowledge and great judgement added real value to the brand proposition. Highly recommended
