Fleur’s early career spanned retail management and strategy consultancy where she gained experience in both the operational and strategic sides of the retail sector.

She later moved into global brand and insight consultancy where she specialised in qualitative research and brand, product and service design. Through this work she helped brands in a variety of sectors understand their consumers, create clear strategies and develop their product portfolios or services. 

Most recently, after gaining a professional qualification in Learning & Development, Fleur transitioned her career to work in Oxford University's People & Organisational Development (POD) department as an Organisational Development Advisor where she supported Oxford's staff with personal, professional and career development via management and leadership development programmes, coaching and mentoring and career development tools.
