Event Chairing, Moderation & Facilitation Across Procurement, Supply Chain & ESG

Transform your conference, roundtable, or executive session into a powerful, high-impact experience.

Where complex topics become clear, engaging and impactful.

From global conferences to intimate executive roundtables, I help senior audiences connect, challenge, and learn — through structured, intelligent, professionally facilitated conversation.

Recent topics include:

Procurement • Supply Chain • ESG • Sustainability Reporting • Commercial • Contract Management • AI & Digital Procurement • Compliance • Talent & Workforce • Software Licensing & Management

I connect the dots between disciplines - turning multi-topic agendas into a coherent strategic storyline your audience can follow

Because great events don’t just share content - they create meaningful conversations

The Challenge I Solve

Most events struggle to turn complexity into clarity.

Today’s agendas are broad, interconnected, and fast-moving:

- Digital procurement accelerating transformation

- ESG and compliance reshaping reporting and risk

- Talent shortages redefining operating models

- Contract management becoming a value lever

- Supply chain resilience under constant stress

- AI reshaping workflows and decision-making

For organisers, this creates reliable pain points:

- Panels that lack direction or depth

- Speakers who need support staying on message

- Complex topics that overwhelm audiences

- Sessions that drift, overrun, or lose energy

- Senior attendees who expect more than standard facilitation

My role is to make every session feel structured, intelligent, and engaging - no matter the topic, format, or audience.

What I Bring

Expert facilitation for cross-disciplinary leaders

I combine:

  • Deep domain expertise — procurement, supply chain, ESG, commercial, digital, risk. I’ve led and taught all of them

  • A calm, senior, engaging presence

  • I create a warm, safe setting where senior leaders feel able to share and challenge constructively

  • The ability to simplify & synthesise

    I make complex topics effortless to follow

  • Energy when it helps; discipline when it matters

Speakers stay supported; audiences stay engaged.

Everyone leaves with the Storyline

Formats I Support

From 1,000+ person conferences to private Round Table sessions

I chair, moderate, or facilitate:

  • Flagship global procurement & supply chain conferences

  • ESG & sustainability reporting summits

  • Contract management and commercial events

  • Digital procurement, AI & future-of-work conferences

  • Executive and C-suite roundtables

  • Buyer–supplier engagement events

  • Virtual keynotes, webinars & live debates

  • Leadership retreats & strategy days

  • Workshops and transformation offsites

Every session is adapted to the personalities in the room.

Whether I’m chairing a 1,000-person keynote or guiding a private C-suite roundtable, the experience feels personal, fluent and high-trust.
