Senior strategy and hands-on delivery
One senior person creating the strategy and then delivering it - no handovers, nothing lost in translation.
Having spent a decade in agency I know the value of a safe pair of hands. That’s what I’ll be for your team, someone to hit the ground running and get stuck in when you’re over capacity.
And if you want some help upskilling your team, I can do that too - from time management, to client handling I’ll get your teams working better together.

LEGAL
I translate legalese into plain English and find the hook that makes technical legal changes matter to your audience. A decade working in legal PR means I know how to make life easier for fee earners and encourage their engagement with PR and comms.
skills
Skills is a saturated topic, so I'll help you unpick the narrative to find the parts you can actually own and cut through the noise across media, content and social channels.
property & construction
From commercial developments to sustainable building practices, I've worked across the sector on planning announcements, industry trends, project completions and thought leadership content.
FINANCIAL & PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
I've worked with professional services firms to position them as experts through trade and national media coverage, authoritative content and approaches that reach decision makers, all whilst making complex financial services accessible without dumbing them down.
tech
I translate tech innovation into language that non-technical audiences understand, so your business doesn't get lost in jargon whether that's through media coverage, accessible content or compelling campaigns.
anything else?
Nearly a decade in B2B agency means you'll be hard pressed to find a sector I don't have experience in - sustainable travel, balustrades, medical technology, commercial equipment, even doughnuts.

Grace is an asset to any team: she's easy to be around, straight-forward, strategic and will always give her honest advice to ensure the best success of any project she's working on. It's a breath of fresh air to work with somebody who's not afraid to be candid with anyone she's working with, but doing so in a collaborative way that has the client's best interests at heart. Grace leaves no stone unturned and takes great pride in her work, approaching any challenge with masses of experience, intelligence and initiative.
Katy Meehan

I've had the pleasure of working with Grace for the past two years, and her PR expertise is second to none. She brings a wealth of experience to the table and consistently delivers creative, high impact campaign ideas that drive excellent coverage. Grace is not only highly skilled but also incredibly efficient, she knows how to navigate fast-paced environments while maintaining a keen eye for detail. I highly recommend Grace to anyone looking for a PR professional who combines creativity, strategy and execution seamlessly.
