      Nov 2020 - now

      Assistant to the Chief Executive of two sovereign councils, serving half a million Londoners. Serving three Chief Executives with different styles, starting during the pandemic and ending following a change in administration in Wandsworth, in this role I developed a level of expertise on all things local government usually unheard of at this stage of a career.This role was far more than that of a Personal Assistant, and included being part of a team developing the early stages of our corporate transformation programme; leading on the delivery of ambitious projects to mark the late Queen’s Platinum Jubilee, and the King’s Coronation; and authoring reports turning political priorities into real Council policy affecting hundreds of thousands of residents.
