“I have worked with Leigh for many years in her role with Cork Chamber. She is and always has been an individual of significant ability and resource. Her ability to make things happen and to seamlessly reach a conclusion is a significant strenght of hers. An additional attribute which Leigh exhibits is her attention to detail and her ability to source relevant information on a wide variety of topics and issues. In addition Leigh has immersed herself in the business fabric of Cork and has achieved a significant level of business contacts who also defer to her on many items. No task is too great for Leigh and you can always rely on a professional outcome. Leigh is a good person to have to get things done.”

“I have worked with Leigh on a number of Chamber events over the past three years and can’t recommend her approach highly enough. I have been a guest, attendee, sponsor and organiser of events and Leigh’s systematic and thorough approach to event management ensures that all events run to plan. From planning meetings through to an 800 person event, Leigh is absolutely professional in her approach. Leigh has a great ability to see event management from all sides – she is mindful of the needs and expectations of sponsors, guests, attendees, speakers, hosts, venues. Leigh’s ability to manage all aspects of the event ensures a great result for everyone involved.”

“I have worked with Leigh for a number of years through my role as marketing manager with EY. We work particularly closely with EY’s sponsorship of the Cork Chamber Dublin Dinner and I find Leigh to be the ultimate professional. She is skilled at managing numerous stakeholders and can be relied upon to respond and deal with issues in a timely and professional manner. Leigh always brings fresh ideas to the table and has a sound understanding of how to maximise event potential. She is very driven and has an exceptionally high work ethic – this is reflected in the fact Cork Chamber is recognised as being one of the most progressive of the Chambers in Ireland and their events are seen as gold standard. Most of all I find Leigh to be completely unflappable and always very pleasant to deal with.”
