I studied Business Information Systems at University and as part of this degree course I was able to research Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) tools, as well as Data Warehousing and SAP R/3. With my SAP and Data Warehousing knowledge I then completed a placement year at Nestle UK. Here I worked as part of the SAP Business Warehouse (BW) team delivering Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to the business. After completing my degree course and taking some time out to travel, I joined Bluefin in October 2002 as a Junior Consultant.

I am currently working as a Consultant for Bluefin. My main focus and area of expertise is SAP BW, although I am also cross-training into SAP Enterprise Portals. A typical project will see me working as part of a small team, made up of Bluefin Consultants working closely with the client and business users. I would normally be involved in the technical build and testing of the system, before moving on to training end-users and supporting the solution.

In addition to large projects I am also involved in creating and delivering BW training courses for clients. These would usually be 1 or 2 days plus internal preparation time. I am also responsible for some internal initiatives, such as creating demonstrations on the Bluefin systems that can then be shown to clients. Being an established Bluefin Consultant, I am now a mentor to a Junior Consultant and I hope to provide the necessary support to my mentee whilst helping her to develop into an experienced consultant.

I have seen and helped Bluefin grow from a start-up company to an established 'Advanced SAP Consultancy'. This has been good for both me and the organisation. It is also satisfying to know that I have helped Bluefin become what it is today.
