“North Star Housing Group has worked with Jacqui as a consultant on a range of asset management and investment planning reviews and projects. Jacqui is an expert in the field of asset management and assisted us to better understand our assets, that led to improved focus on investment and the release of loan capacity. We now have a very robust and reliable asset management strategy and asset condition information and a return on assets model with highly effective planning. Jacqui blends her expertise, with helpful challenge and organisational understanding.”

“Durham City Homes asked Jacqui to help us with a root and branch review of our approach to asset management and then work with us in developing and delivering an action plan to deliver the improvements that were identified. She worked with us in completely overhauling our approach to stock condition and programme development, procuring delivery partners and ensuring statutory and regulatory compliance. Her in-depth and comprehensive knowledge helped guide us through this process, while her supportive and practical approach ensured that it was implemented in a timely and efficient manner that was never forced and with a minimum of friction. She is particularly good at working with teams of people to identify the best way forward for the group, not imposing her own agenda and is very strong in knowledge transfer and developing teams to deliver their best.”.

“Being able to get into the detail and work alongside the foot soldiers yet be strategic with project principals– and how to flip between the two approaches, is a rare yet very valuable skill in project management that’s not seen amongst most consultants. Thankfully for us and the project, Jacqui possessed it in spades.”

"Paul has great design and technical knowledge, this enabled him to provide pragmatic decisions in a timely manner to ensure that the project was delivered on time and under budget."

"Jacqui worked with me on several projects as Partnering Adviser where among other things, she chaired collaborative contracting workshops, conducted 360 degree reviews of the project team, identified risk and removed delivery ambiguity. Her work on bringing the teams together and working with them to define their roles, responsibilities, tasks and actions has been first class and delivered real results."

"The professionalism, emotional intelligence and insightfulness , Jacqui brought to the project cannot be overstated, as the above points were achieved in days not weeks. It was this achievement and those key attributes which I believe differentiated Jacqui from her many peers in the industry. Given the opportunity I would not hesitate in employing Jacqui directly or via her new entity “Collectiveight”"
