Claire is a Business Studies graduate who has worked within several multinational organisations, with experience in Projects, Resourcing, Team Management and Business Support. After several years progressing her career in London, Claire decided to take a career break to raise her two sons.

Claire enjoys spending time with her family, running, yoga, exploring Scotland and watching a great film.
