I am responsible for multiple projects including leading the central enterprise offer, within Careers and Employability at the University of Liverpool. I am creating a portfolio of enterprise programmes and activities. I work within the Student Success Team improving a student’s sense of wellbeing, belonging, social mobility, retention, and attainment.

My previous role was within The Liverpool Bio-Innovation Hub and Biobank (LBIH). I was responsible for providing business support and laboratory facilities to Start-Ups within Health and Life Sciences. I developed a range of knowledge exchange events and marketing activities. The LBIH was an ERDF funded project within the University of Liverpool.

I worked in collaboration with The Knowledge Quarter to attract companies and investment into Liverpool City Region, support the growth of Start Up’s, SME’s and Spin-offs, and also raise the profile of Liverpool City and the University of Liverpool as an investment location.

There are many opportunities to collaborate, share best practice, and get connected. Please get in touch with me about your business, collaborative ideas, and any support you might need. [email protected]
