TESTIMONIAL
"At the time of writing this, Claire hired me into the organisation 12 months ago; seeing her passion and vision for what the organisation was trying to achieve was a significant factor in me wanting to join the company. In that time Claire transformed how software development is done at the organisation. She’s driven the implementation of new working practices; adopting Agile methodology, effectively. Championing career development and training so it is always front of mind for the engineering department. She introduced new ways of working with the rest of the business, defining, and implementing product roadmaps, defining our delivery goals over a 9-month view whilst allowing us to give firm commitments on delivery items for the next quarter.
She was able to grow and develop the engineering function into a high-performing and enjoyable place to work for the engineers in the team, whilst launching 2 new products to market on time. A first in some time for the organisation.
I’ve been working in IT since 1987; I’ve had the privilege to work with some of the largest and most dynamic organisations in the world, and without a shadow of doubt, Claire is one of the most effective, passionate, caring, and tenacious people I’ve had the pleasure to work with and for."
