Our professional and friendly interpreting and employment team provide first class services 24 hours a day, every day of the year.

Sally our Chief Executive likes running; running early in the morning in the sunshine, up and down hills; running the show here at Clarion; running new organisations; running things differently; running to the off licence; running her kids ragged; running Marathons and of course running a hot bath.

Cheryl Cullen is the Head of Business Development for Clarion and her mantra is "innovate, innovate, innovate". Her role is to manage existing customers and business and grow our current business as well as introducing new products and services to the market with her brilliantly creative ideas. Cheryl has 11 years' experience of strategically managing and delivering Deaf services and until 2010 was the Director of Employment, Training and Skills for RNID and held the post for 6 years.

Our resident funny man, Bob is Clarion Work Focus' National Operations Manager leading a team of 85 freelance and full time staff with a determined desire to help his fellow deaf peers gain a level playing field in the work place. Bob is a passionate Manchester United supporter as well as his four grand childrens' biggest fan. Always on the go and often on the road, he loves travel and says nothing compares to the breathtaking views of the Valley of Jordan from Mount Nebo.

Keeping the both the booking and interpreting teams in check, Lorna is our Operations Manager overseeing the coordination of all of our interpreting and communication bookings. Often found on Google Maps ensuring booking venues are not in fact located in the Bermuda Triangle, Lorna claims to be too suburban to have crossed the Antarctic in slippers or swum the Channel or "anything like that" and prefers instead to walk the dog, cook dinner and have a glass of wine.

Managing and coordinating all of our education bookings is no easy task - especially at the start of a new academic year, but Julie our Education Bookings Manager is a pro and ensures our students' communication support goes ahead without a glitch. Julie is a high flier (literally) and in her spare time is often spotted jumping out of planes, learning to fly them or taking a more relaxed approach with a hot air balloon ride.

Clarion's version of Ally McBeal, Linda is very happy managing the legal desk and organising all bookings within the criminal justice sector. She has travelled extensively and has seen some truly amazing sights. Linda has written a children's geology book and a chilling crime thriller (as yet unpublished but watch this space)! In her free time Linda enjoys taking arty photos and pottering around her garden. After taking her gorgeous new puppy out for a long walk, Linda likes to curl up with a decent book and a chilled glass of wine.

Carol is the 'colourful' character of Clarion - clothes, post it notes and, especially, her famed spreadsheets, which frighten almost everyone else off using them! Starting at Clarion in 2008, she now manages the ever growing Medical bookings keeping tabs on the job in hand - co-ordinating the troops in the field and providing a check-out service for patients Carol is very theatrical - having trod the boards for the past 35 years. For her, 2011 is a milestone year and starts a whole new chapter in her life - one which she looks forward to with relish!

Rosa is our Regional Bookings Coordinator, filling a huge variety of bookings all over the country. Having worked in property management until she felt like she needed a life change, she jacked it all in, spent a few months travelling round Europe and ended up here! Baker of delicious cakes she's the Nigella Lawson of the office and loves testing out new recipes on us lot, which funnily enough, we don't mind.

Sarah is the smiling face of our database of freelancers and a Booking Coordinator for our Access to Work (AtW) customers. She likes to know anything and everything about our freelance interpreters and communication professionals. Sarah is also our in house font of all IT knowledge and the one we go running to when "computer says no". Clarion's champion of green issues, she can often be seen cycling to and from work. Her passions include reading, cycling, walking and music of the 80s and 90s.

Helen is her name and numbers are her game. She is our super organised Financial Controller, managing all financial aspects of the company Helen has over 25 years experience working within a financial environment. More recently Helen was the Company Accountant for Smooth Operations (Productions) Ltd, a radio and television production company where she worked for 9 years, getting involved in all aspects of the business including live broadcasts.
