Hello, I'm Joanne

I bring orderto ambition.

For more than a decade I've worked inside enterprise PMOs and alongside senior leaders on some of the UK's largest regulated programmes — National Grid, National Highways, UK Power Networks, Sky and Telefónica — helping build governance that holds at portfolio scale and reporting that actually tells the truth.

Alongside that work, I partner with founders, directors and executive teams who need a steady hand behind the scenes — bringing structure to busy weeks, clarity to board and leadership reporting, and the practical planning that moves ideas into action.

One operator, two distinct practices — held to the same standard of discretion, rigour and quiet excellence.

How I work

Two practices. One operator.

The work splits naturally into two rooms. One is the enterprise PMO — multi-million programmes, regulators, steering committees, portfolio controls. The other is Executive Edge — the chief-of-staff backbone behind founders and directors. The discipline is the same; the audience is different. Pick the room that's yours.
