I've spent more than 25 years leading people in retail, from shopfloor management through to senior leadership roles.

Today, I work with retail professionals and retail businesses through Retail Leadership Unboxed, helping people develop their careers, navigate change, and present their experience more effectively.

Over the years I've reviewed and rewritten hundreds of CVs for retail managers, area managers, HR professionals, heads of department and senior leaders.

One thing I've learned is that most people have far more value to offer than their CV demonstrates.

The Retail Leadership CV Framework was created to help retail professionals tell their story more clearly, showcase their achievements with confidence, and create a CV that reflects the impact they've made throughout their career.

My aim is simple: help good people get the opportunities they deserve.
