If you don't already know me, here's a little intro:

What I do: "My business is www.consultingwithkerr.com I'm a small business coach / mentor / consultant - the hat I wear depends on what each of my clients needs and much of my work can be done online so I work nationally I first trained at Deloitte as a Chartered Accountant (a long time ago) and I've also trained and worked in Corporate Finance, HR Management, Project Management, Lean Six Sigma Black Belt, Reward Management and Design.

Thinking I've worked with businesses from global corporates to local start-ups and my passion is supporting small business owners I've developed my framework - Productivity 4 Profitability - reviewing Perspective, Performance, People and Process to identify and implement the changes that will deliver the greatest business benefits.

I'm a Growth Champion and Digital Champion for Coast to Capital LEP Growth Hub. I'm a mentor on the Government-sponsored Help to Grow: Management programme, supporting cohorts from Bournemouth University Business School, Oxford Brookes Business School and Small Business Britain.

I'm proud to be Co-Founder and Director of Camden Open Air Gallery - a role that grew from a one-hour-per week coaching session with the inspirational Finn Brewster Doherty"

Who I am: "I live on the South Coast of England, with my husband Nigel Kerr IEng, our son and our rescue Boxer dog I'm autistic and ADHD - I was diagnosed in early 2020, just as I set up my own business and the same day Boris Johnson announced the first national lockdown, so the last two years have been a journey (to say the least). I only publicly shared my diagnoses a couple of weeks ago as it's taken me this long to gather the confidence to talk about my neurodivergence.

I want to be an advocate for other differently abled business owners. Did you know that ‘Kerr’ is actually pronounced ‘care’? So my business name has a dual meaning – as well as being my surname, it’s also one of my core values. I care about doing a great job for my clients."

My greatest reward is seeing my clients succeed, while I support them from behind the scenes.
