Bio
Simon Bell
I had the pleasure with working for Val at SEGRO on a number of projects over the years. Val was very easy to work with and offered great advice on a number of topics from People Management to Data Protection law. Val has a great work ethic and strives to make the workplace a productive and enjoyable place to be. Val works very hard to produce results and always delivered with exceptional quality. I highly recommend Val and would look forward to working with her again.
Paul Craven
Val brought to the projects we worked on together enthusiasm, logic, knowledge and a desire to produce the best result possible. She is a pleasure to work with. She has high standards and delivers to them. She also has a good sense of humour, is collegiate in her dealings with others and is good at motivating those around her. We worked together on rebranding the company and as members of the charity committee. She also led the production of the CR Reoprt in which I helped. At all times she was organised, focussed, professional and good to work with.
