See what customers say about us...

"Sanjee is one of our key associates and she provides excellent support in terms of research and strategic analysis. She also adds immense additional value to the work we do as she has a first rate understanding of enterprise (including social enterprise) and skills and business support."

- Dorothy Kelly, Director of Dorothy Kelly Associates

 

“Sanjee (Ideas for change) took our brief and in a very professional manner produced a clear and well presented overview of our services. Perhaps more importantly she provided useful suggestions as to how we could move forward, which in today’s changing environment provided invaluable food for thought.”

- Paul McEldon, Chief Executive of the NE-BIC

“Over the last couple of years Sanjee has worked for both NBSL and the other regional Enterprise Agencies. She concentrated on Regional Growth Fund (RGF) bid writing and the mapping of the full capabilities of the regions agencies. Throughout, Sanjee demonstrated a robust understanding of the North East regions Enterprise and Business Support agenda, and evidenced the outcomes of her work by thorough research, underpinned by an energetic and positive challenge to ensure solid recommendations. I look forward to working with Sanjee in the future.”

- Phil Langton CEO NBSL (October 2012).

 

"Sanjee Ratnatunga supported the North East LEP during its formative early months of existence in 2011. Sanjee provided valuable expertise and advice to the LEP on matters relating to business and enterprise. In particular, she assisted the new LEP Board and partners as the LEP sought to understand the nature of the new BIS Business Coaching for Growth programme. She was a source of expert knowledge and counsel to me and the NELEP Interim Secretariat. I would have no hesitation in either recommending Sanjee or working with her again on future projects."

Dr. Peter O'Brien, formerly Director, Tyne and Wear City Region and Head of NELEP Interim Secretariat

“Sanjee quickly came to terms with the complexities of developing our project in Co Durham and developed a clear outline to take things forward. Her project management skills have ensured that services have been delivered with 100% efficiency and in the proper time frame. Sanjee has proved excellent to work with; highly professional and completely reliable with a good sense of humour too!”

- Andrew White, Chief Executive, SkillsBridge Ltd

“Measuring the impact of our work is a critical factor in our organisation's development. The structure of the evaluation and knowing where to place the emphasis on fieldwork were key elements. Sanjee took the time to listen to our needs and then delivered a first class piece of work. Her assessment of potential areas for development have proved invaluable.”
