Championing Skills, Inclusion, and Innovation in Construction

With decades of experience supporting the construction industry, I’m passionate about creating a skilled, competent, and inclusive workforce that meets the challenges of today—and tomorrow.  

The construction sector is evolving rapidly. From attracting the right talent to developing future-ready skills systems, I work to empower individuals and businesses to thrive in this dynamic landscape.  

At CITB, our mission is simple:  
- Attracting talent: Inspiring the next generation to join and succeed in construction.  
- Developing skills: Building a training and development system aligned with the industry’s needs.  
- Driving inclusion: Ensuring the workforce is diverse, equitable, and inclusive.  
- Supporting growth: Providing robust resources for workforce training and development.  

How I can support you:
Whether you’re an employer, training provider, or industry advocate, I’m here to connect, collaborate, and create opportunities that drive meaningful change. I specialise in:  
- Partnering with businesses to address skills gaps.  
- Promoting equity, diversity, and inclusion across the workforce.  
- Leading initiatives like the Top 100 Women in Construction Awards to spotlight talent and drive positive change as well as the Neurodiversity research in the industry.

What I bring to the table
Community building: I’ve led initiatives that bring people together, from grassroots efforts to national campaigns, ensuring that every voice is heard and valued.
Neurodiversity advocacy: Through training and education programs, I help organisations better understand and support neurodivergent individuals, creating workplaces that are not just accommodating but empowering.
Leadership and results: As a leader in engagement, I’ve guided teams to deliver tangible outcomes, from fostering employer networks to supporting workforce development projects.
Mental health advocacy: As a trustee with Mates in Mind, I’m committed to improving mental health awareness and support across the construction sector.

I’m always excited to hear from people who share my commitment to innovation, inclusion, and growth in the construction industry.

As a business owner, you have undoubtedly faced the challenge of wanting to grow your business but being held back by the administrative tasks and budget constraints. 

You’re incredibly talented in your field of expertise, but you have hit a glass ceiling because you don’t have enough time to do the work to grow the business & to do the work to service the business.

Admin is not billable time & that is a challenge.

That’s where Out of The Woods comes in.

We augment, supplement & support you to bridge the gap between billable time & compliance.

Expanding your company?

With my extensive experience in communications planning, strategy, & advisory work, I understand the importance of having a strong corporate division to support the growth of your company. 

As a business owner you tend to focus heavily on your technical abilities and expand according to the demand for growth, leaving the administrative tasks such as health and safety, public relations, & compliance ISO’s on the sidelines.

That's where I can help. 

Out of the Woods Consultancy Limited is your outsourced business compliance, strategy & administrative partner, providing a range of services to help bridge the gap between your company's current state and where you want it to be. 
Whether you're expanding your engineering or construction company, electrical firm, traffic management, or utility company, we can provide you with the support you need to reach your profitability goals.

Our services include:
public relations
marketing
communications (internal and external)
proposals

business reviews
health and safety
risk analysis
audits

compliance
individualized documentation 
incident investigation
process audits for water treatment plants. Essentially helping you see the wood for the trees with all the tasks outside of your actual trade qualifications, like ISO’s done the right way. 

What's the most amazing thing? You scale up or down our services as you need & as the demands change. 

As a media relations expert with a strong leadership background, I have managed teams, contractors, and PR agencies while providing complete media services for clients and internal senior management. So you are in good hands.

If you're ready to take your business to the next level & overcome the challenges that have been holding you back, look no further than Out of the Woods Consultancy Limited.
