I am proud to work with Tesco, John Lewis, H&M, TJX Europe, Gatwick Airport, The Department for International Trade, The Bank of England, UNOPS, Royal Mail, McLaren Automotive, Whitbread, Nestle, All3Media, Merlin Entertainments, First Direct, Ocado, Deliveroo, Honda and Peugeot.My team at Host Media Consultants specialises in leadership communication skills; from influencing via virtual platforms to media training, presentation skills, personal impact coaching, panel and Q&A skills and crisis management.

See Hannah\'s blog on Top Tips for running effective virtual meetings at As a main anchor on CNBC Europe’s ‘Today’s Business’ I provided analysis, interviews, and breaking news updates on global financial markets. Prior to that, I presented Sky News, often conducting live interviews on breaking news stories from around the world. During six years as an anchor on Meridian’s flagship news programme, ‘Meridian Tonight’ I co-presented a live half-hour weekly programme on a broad range of news and current affairs topics. As a TV reporter and researcher, I worked for Sky News and TV-am and was a bulletin reader and reporter for GMTV, Thames News, TVS and BBC Newsroom South East. I passionately believe that everyone can improve their ability to communicate and influence others with the right support and my greatest pleasure is seeing clients grow in confidence through the coaching whilst retaining a sense of personal authenticity. I am very proud to have retained many of my clients for several years and I take pleasure in growing and adapting my coaching content to meet changing situations.
