Kim Somerville – Marketing Director Leeds Trinity University
Suzie has offered my University a great balance of strategic yet tactical communications consultancy with an academic yet business focus. She is clearly extremely passionate about improving communications and is committed to getting the right outcomes. Her approach is very personable and warm making her a great extension to the team as opposed to someone on the outside looking in.
Andy Shaw – O2
Suzie is possibly one of the most enthusiastic people I have worked with. She matches her passion for organisational and cultural transformation with an intelligence and insight that I have rarely experienced since.
Andy Brown – Business Helper
Suzie is incredibly bright and has amazing energy. She hit the ground running when she joined our team at Active and made a huge contribution. She’s imaginative and easy to get on with and I’d be happy to recommend her to organisations seeking energy and clarity.
Simon Hall – Oasis Trust
Suzie Hamlin is a creative and perceptive organisational analyst who has facilitated corporate renewal in two different organisations I’ve worked for. If I was wanting to reshape and reenvision an organisation through careful listening to colleagues and customers I would go straight to Suzie.
Mike Love – Together for Peace
Suzie has worked with me in a variety of roles for nearly 10 years: communications consultant, project manager, organisational consultant, and facilitator. She has phenomenal capacity to grasp complexity and turn it into manageable process coupled with a great way with people.
Kate McTeer – Head of Communications – F4S
Our organisation faced serious challenges in its complex system of internal communication. Suzie helped us to create a clear and manageable process for objectively assessing our systems, identifying problem areas and formulating a strategy for change.
Stuart Smalley – Head of Org Devel – NHS Estates
A competent facilitator who knows how to get the best out of people.

Suzie has worked closely with my senior team during a period of transition to new management structures. She brings insight, expertise and a really engaging approach to the professional and emotional challenges of leadership. We will be working with her again.
Anita Burke – A Way Out
Suzie’s truly professional approach is married with a sincerity and attitude of genuine care, enabling her to quickly ‘get under the skin’ of an organisation. Her friendly and trustworthy nature gave staff the confidence to be honest and when discussing the organisation. Suzie provided our organisation with a non-biased and balanced view of where we were and helped us to see a clear direction ahead.
Linda Harding – Founder NETWORK:LEEDS
Suzie has an excellent blend of visionary, analytical and strategic skills, and uses them to access a breadth of communications needs and recommend and implement relevant, creative and constructive solutions.
Claire Scaramanga – Owner Scaramanga Marketing
Suzie was an inspiration to work with; full of ideas and energy and brilliant at harnessing the skills of her team – and mine. I am amazed by her ability to cut right to the heart of the matter and develop great solution. Her PhD is very well earned, and entirely grounded in the real world of business. I highly recommend Suzie – as a thinker, implementer and inspiration.
Vik Banks – LeftBank
Suzie is an insightful facilitator and thoughtful connector who has worked with me and the Left Bank team to explore our strategic direction. She is generous with her time and contacts, thorough in her preparation and creative in her approach. We look forward to working with her again.
Fiona Kitchen – Head of Marketing Paymentshield
Suzie came into the business to help us deliver a new website in a challenging timescale – her teamwork, effective planning and customer focus helped Paymentshield to develop a more sophisticated website which has had an excellent response from intermediaries. She also helped to introduce processes and procedures which allowed a more streamlined updates to occur. A real team-worker who picks up things quickly, works well under pressure and is not afraid to get her hands dirty whilst retaining a strategic focus.
