Bethan Tomlinson FRSA

I met Fiona in 2006 with a small scale company as she mentored me to become a Producer. She supported me in so many ways to develop my business and skills through her clarity of thought and communication, understanding and shared ambition, pushing me just enough to achieve so much in a short time. Fiona is an excellent connector and has an outstanding ability to see potential in creative prospects. She will ensure that she meets business vision and financial goals with determination and lateral thinking. She really inspires others in her team and sector peers with her genuine and infectious passion for the power of the arts. She is determined, incredibly efficient in her thinking, approach and delivery but has the ability to work in such a personable manner. I was incredibly lucky to learn from her and am always excited when I hear about her next projects and roles. Everything Fiona does she does to the best of her ability, with insight, consideration of impact and exceptional results. I honestly cannot recommend her highly enough.
