WORK HISTORY
Better Projects Lead @Science Museum Group
London, GB
Project management was fragmented and patchy due to having no common approach or training for those managing projects. Those with project management responsibility were lacking confidence and clear guidelines on what they were expected to do.I increased the Group\'s ability to be effective and joined-up by creating a common project managment framework in the form of the Better Projects Handbook, covering governance, skills, techniques and a common language.I increased the confidence, knowledge and skill of those with project management responsibilitiies by delivering a programme of one-day training courses across the Group\'s locations.

Personal qualities: Clarity - I am honest and transparent when working to understand a business problem and what is required to address it.

Excellence - I commit to the best possible outcome and drive myself and others to outperform the crowd.

In my field I am a progressive, an innovator and work hard to help organisations think beyond the status quo, standard practice, to enable them to be best in class and distinctive.

I have a track record of using my skills in organisations that further the cause of human rights.
