Dawn Leader

Business Growth Consultant

I have spent my career involved in money and finance.

10 years trading on the International Money Markets allowed me to indulge my love of travel followed by 14 years of banking experience in International Trade Finance, putting together finance packages from commercial airliner fleets to giftware lines in main grocers.

After living in London, Frankfurt and Athens I saw the light and moved to beautiful Dorset, 15 years ago, seeking a better work life balance and to start a family.

I enjoy walking with my dog, running, mountain biking, yoga and gardening so much I can only work for the Dorset Growth Hub part-time.
