“I worked with Alison for over seven years at Edinburgh City Council. In that time, Alison had several roles, reflecting a skill set which was in high demand. These ranged from co-writing a very successful five year Economic Development Strategy to a being central to the setting up of the Scottish Cities Alliance to, in later years, developing the Edinburgh and Region City Deal. Alison is a consummate professional, a formidable programme manager but also possessing a strong policy background. These talents combined with great communications skills and strong management ability, made Alison a very valuable member of the team. I would recommend Alison for any management, policy, economic development, consultancy or project management role.”
