Name: Helen Whittle

Nationality: British

Grade: Senior Associate

Office: London

Academic background: BA Hons Economics and Management, University of Oxford

After studying Economics and Management at New College, Oxford University, I joined Accenture.  One year later, I moved to Spectrum Value Partners to focus on pure strategy work.

During my three years here, I have worked for a wide variety of clients across most of our sectors. Some of my favourite projects include: working for Cable & Wireless on a new business venture, advising BBC Broadcast (after its sale) on how to transition from a public not-for-profit institution into a commercial organisation, and advising British Music Rights on the evolution of digital music. 

I’ve also had the opportunity to travel extensively to Singapore, Hong Kong, Sydney and Malaysia.  Most of these projects occurred during a six month secondment to the Singapore office. 

All in all, what I like most about Spectrum Value Partners is the rapid pace of learning and the opportunity to work alongside, and make recommendations to, CEO-level clients.  You have the chance to really get involved in building the company and work alongside great people.
