Sarah’s Bio: Sarah worked as a Systems Engineer for [] years, focusing on the front end of the lifecycle before she founded Clarion with Tracey and David in 2015. During her [] years in the public sector, Sarah was fundamental in delivering many projects; from scope, to design, to making it stick. These projects and outcomes remain foundational to the client's current ways of working.  

Throughout her career Sarah has tried to ensure that everyone gets a fair shot. For Sarah, fairness is a fundamental value; taking care to extend it to herself as well as those around her. She encourages others to do the same, using the analogy, ‘putting your oxygen mask on before helping others'. Sarah is incredibly proud of her part in Clarion, especially now, as she can see the three founders’ original vision materialise.  

Tracey’s Bio:

Tracey began her career as a PA in Eagle Tower, (where Clarion is currently based). Tracey has had a diverse career. She's worked at Industrial Society, Capita, and she launched her own business during maternity leave. Her work in the public sector began at Worcester County Council, before becoming a contractor for Clarion’s current client. Here, she specialised in stakeholder management and business change activities. This is where she crossed paths with Dave and Sarah, leading them to establish Clarion in 2015. 

Colleagues would describe Tracey as chatty, sociable, and someone who gets things done. She thinks that most things can be solved with good communication, and if people talked more the world would be a better place. Tracey places great importance on people. She cherishes thank-you letters from colleagues at the client because it allows her to see how her work is making an impact on individuals.
