ABOUT ME

I’m Clare. 

I’m a UK-based consultant and accredited coach specialising in collaborative problem-solving. 

In other words, I’m all about sorting sh*t out together, and getting businesses and people unstuck.  

I’ve led highly recognised creative businesses and mentored brilliant creative people for over 20 years.

I’m a confident leader and decision-maker, but an even better wingwoman :)

I started my consultancy work on return from Australia in 2015. When the pandemic hit, I retrained and started Human Work Coach as another way to be there for people as they returned to work with a whole new worldview, and new expectations.

Being officially ‘industry-adjacent’, I’m extending all my leadership thinking, operational experience and global perspective to my clients and mentees.

I’ve survived the extreme highs and lows of industry - the celebrations, the burnouts, the people and the politics - and learned to live somewhere in the middle. I want people to experience a positive and productive working life, without compromising their values and sacrificing their mental health. And I want that to apply to everyone, equally.

It can be done.  

And with a huge dose of compassion and (northern) humour, we can enjoy the work of getting there, together.

When I’m mentored by Clare my best thinking comes together. She brings stimuli to the table that perfectly respond to my questions or hypotheses. She helps me crystallise early thoughts into great ideas. We challenge each other and create together. She’s part sister, part colleague, part spiritual advisor. She gets it. She gets me.

Coaching with Clare has been invaluable to my career and my personal life. She helped me to navigate some extremely challenging work situations by taking on different perspectives and re-evaluating my own personal goals. She helped me to realise my value, potential and to speak up for what I’m looking for out of my career.

Clare’s insight and commitment to understanding our business is invaluable. The sessions are transformative and her well researched advice is superb. Our experience with Fox & Wolf is genuinely fun and something I would not hesitate to recommend especially for small and medium sized growing businesses in the Arts and Media sector
