Location: Preston | UK


After working within the Civil Service and Government Agencies for over 20 years, in the areas of HR and Learning and Development, I took voluntary redundancy in September 2014 and decided to start up my own coaching and training business, JL Consultancy, in Preston, Lancashire. I wanted to be able to use my skills and experience to help other people overcome challenges in their lives.


I am a trained and authorised YB12 coach. YB12 business and personal development programmes are designed to be delivered to individuals, groups or businesses. They enable you to have the best 12 months of your life. This can be in relation to your business life or your personal life (or both as often the two are interlinked, even though we do try to keep them apart!)



My background and experience



I have had many years of experience in working within HR, in various areas including Recruitment and Selection, and in Learning and Development, where I have worked as an NVQ Assessor and Internal Verifier and I am qualified in both these areas. At the same time as carrying out the Assessor and Internal Verifier roles I also worked as an NVQ Centre Co-ordinator.



Following these roles I worked as a Learning and Development Evaluator, Trainer and Training Portfolio Holder. I have delivered Diversity training, Mental Health awareness training to managers, and have coached staff (mainly managers) in presentation skills. I possess trainer qualifications and I am an authorised YB12 coach for both personal and corporate programmes.
