A day in the life of a Kiddy & Partners consultant
What’s your role and how do you help clients?
My responsibility as Research & Impact Director is to ensure that our services are underpinned by the latest evidence, to share the latest research and thinking with our clients, and to evaluate of the impact of our client work. This involves both internally-facing and externally-facing elements, for instance, working with marketing colleagues to share thought-provoking, evidence-based content such as articles and webinars with clients and contacts, or engaging directly with clients to deliver leadership development sessions.
What does your day-to-day work consist of?
Each day typically includes several virtual meetings. These could be internal meetings about a marketing campaign, or with fellow Kiddy Psychologists to discuss the latest research in relation to an element of our practice and discuss how we might incorporate it into our client work. Or it could be a meeting with a client to discuss delivery of a session with a group of leaders, or follow-up evaluation of the impact of work we’ve already delivered.
I live in Nottingham but since Kiddy & Partners are based primarily in the London office, I would typically spend a day a week in the London office and work remotely the rest of the time (I’m also part-time as I balance my role at Kiddy with an Academic role in a University). So I can definitely say that Kiddy & Partners are open to flexible work arrangements!
Has there been a particular highlight for you whilst with Gateley?
Gateley likes to celebrate and throws an amazing Staff party. My first experience of this was the circus-themed party in 2019 - it was great to see everyone get fully into the spirit of things (I think that’s as much detail as I’ll go into!).
Inward investment

The team help organisations invest in overseas markets by identifying four key things: the right location, the right people, the right funding and the right infrastructure.
A day in the life of an inward investment consultant
Rebecca Bekkenutte, Managing Director, Gateley Global
What is your role and how do you help clients?
I am the Managing Director for Gateley Global. My role is very dynamic and diverse and covers both private and public sector work. The primary functions of my role are: to support non-UK owned businesses that are looking to either set up and/or grow their presence in the UK, generate opportunities across the firm through business development activities and respond to public sector tenders to deliver managed services programmes such as inward investment services or place marketing initiatives for local authorities and LEPs working with local government bodies and national organisation such as the Department for International Trade.
What does your day to day work consist of?
My daily activities will depend on what my clients need, what tenders are live and whether or not we have any activities to perform for tenders the team has won. Over the last three months, the team has been very busy in writing a large multi-submission tender; creating a delivery service from scratch in lines with a set budget and mobilisation plan. I have also been leading on the writing and submission of several other local government tenders (although on a much smaller scale). I have been involved with ‘Meet the Expert’ calls with Turkish entrepreneurs looking to grow their business in the UK, and I have been running a series of ‘UK Insight’ Webinars aimed at American businesses in Texas who may be considering expansion into the UK and/or Europe.
Has there been a particular highlight for you while at Gateley?
So far, the highlight for me while at Gateley has definitely been the tendering and submission process for a multi-million pound public sector tender. I led on the Inward Investment service line, and I had to create a full-scale plan on managing a team, creating a team structure and functions, propose a delivery time-scale and performance outcomes as well as creating innovative solutions to delivering the client’s suggested leading indicators.
