Unlock Your Potential in Pharma R&D
Coaching for the People Behind the Processes
I coach ambitious pharma R&D professionals—scientists, quality leaders, operational managers—who are ready to elevate their leadership, influence their organisations, and accelerate their careers.
Coaching Designed for Pharma Professionals
I specialise in coaching pharma R&D professionals—from quality assurance and clinical operations to regulatory, tech, and scientific leadership—who want to evolve how they lead, influence, and contribute.
Whether you're stepping into a new leadership role, navigating complexity at the executive level, or supporting high-potential talent within your organisation, this coaching is tailored to meet you where you are—and take you where you want to go.
Why Coaching?
You're not looking for vague inspiration. You're looking for results.
Here’s what my clients typically gain:
Greater confidence and clarity in complex or high-stakes roles
Improved stakeholder relationships and communication impact
Stronger strategic thinking and decision-making
Influence without authority—a crucial skill in matrixed organisations
Sustainable leadership habits to avoid overwhelm and burnout
More effective team management and delegation
Alignment of personal values with professional responsibilities

After 12+ years as a quality assurance consultant in the pharmaceutical sector—leading projects, training professionals, and advising organisations—I now focus on developing the people behind the process.
