Expert guidance for large grant proposals, fellowships, and the leadership skills that turn ambitious ideas into transformative outcomes.
Strategic support for the moments that matter most in a research career
High-stakes research programme and fellowship applications demand more than excellent research. They demand clarity, leadership and confidence under pressure.
I help equip researchers with the skills and support needed to excel in major funding competitions—large collaborative bids, flagship fellowships, and interviews where the difference between success and rejection often comes down to the narrative, the delivery, and the leadership team behind the proposal.
Annette Bramley, D.Phil
For over 25 years, I’ve helped researchers navigate the high-stakes world of grant funding and innovation partnerships.
I understand that your proposal isn’t just paperwork—it’s your vision, your career, your potential impact.
Together, we’ll sharpen not just your words, but your presence, your voice, and your ability to lead.
My approach is warm, honest and firmly grounded in real-world experience.
I combine strategic critique with supportive coaching to elevate both the proposal and the person leading it.
These are skills for a lifetime in research—not just for one application.
