John Cook, Commercial Director - worked with Shelley at Incisive Media
“I have worked with Shelley for the last couple of years on a project within my
part of the business.
Shelley is extremely detail orientated and efficient with her duties. She has and
can work with extremely complex projects with enthusiasm and skill.
On a personal level she is a wonderful person to work alongside and will go the
extra mile to help.”
Chris Russell, Senior Technical Project Manager - worked with Shelley at Incisive Media
“Shelley's attention to detail makes her one of the best Technical Project
Managers I've ever had the privilege to work with.
Her ability to spot and resolve issues ahead of time, tenacity and approach to the
projects she is tasked with make her a highly effective team member and an
invaluable individual to have on board in any project or situation.
Her outgoing personality makes her an effective communicator in face-to-face
situations and helps immeasurably in both resolving conflict and in day-to-day
dealings with colleagues at all levels.”
Nigel Balchin, UX specialist - reported to Shelley at Redhouse Lane Communications
"I worked with Shelley on a few projects. In my view she's a great leader and
manager - qualities rare to find in combination. Easy to work with, totally
switched on, tuned in to everything happening in her teams and on her projects
(no matter seemingly how many of them) and a natural to have facing off in
every area. This makes everyone feel comfortable, communication happens with
clarity and things just work."
Alexander Sullivan, Developer, reported to Shelley at Redhouse Lane Communications
"Working with Shelley was a breath of fresh air. Though clear and direct in her
communication she was never overbearing and fostered a good working
environment. Highly organised Shelley had a complete grasp of the project,
leaving both me and the end client secure in the knowledge that everything was
'in hand'. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Shelley, and would gladly take the
opportunity to work with her again."
Robert Fransgaard, Senior designer worked directly with Shelley at Redhouse Lane Communications
"Shelley is a bubbly and smiling individual who can carry a whole team with her
good natured personality. But don't let that fool you. Shelley is an efficient and
organised project manager who can take on digital projects big and small and
apply the right methodology to either. Even though I don't feel I have worked
with Shelley on any project that truly has stretched her skills, I still feel I can
confidently recommend her as a digital project manager."
5. David McNamara, Head of Digital managed Shelley at Redhouse Lane Communications
"Shelley is an astute, enthusiastic and committed project manager. Always
wanting to do great work. She would be a valuable asset for any company
looking for an experienced and reliable project manager who has a calm,
solution orientated and team spirited approach."
Richard Woof, Client - worked directly with Shelley at Redhouse Lane Communications
"This is the second occasion I've been fortunate to work with Shelley (the first
being at Burrows) and the first time we've worked so closely. Shelley is an
excellent project manager. She seamlessly integrated into the team and
immediately made a positive impact. Shelley was proactive with client
communications, assertive and solutions driven - all the things a good project
manager should be."
Jared Joven, Freelance Developer - when working with Shelley at Cimex Media Ltd
"Having worked with Shelley on multiple projects, it's quite easy for me to say
that her style of project management has been a pleasure. At no point in time
did I have any concerns about not having the details I needed to get my tasks
done both effectively and efficiently. Any questions that I may have come up
were answered quickly and in great detail. It is amazing to see and experience
the difference when working with someone that has strong project management
experience. When the opportunity to work with Shelley again comes up, I would
have no sense of hesitation in getting involved with her projects."
Jeremy Gould, was Shelley's client
"Shelley proved to a very good project lead for a website refresh project. She was
extremely patient when things at our end slowed things down but always quick
to respond and ensure her end delivered to time and budget."

positive approach to project managing the digital creative team. She was always
there to offer strong project us support and ensured that all deliverables were
met on time, on budget without compromising the quality of work design work
produced."

necessary support needed to deliver to demanding clients, a pleasure to work
with."
