An exceptional communicator, Donelle is able to quickly build relationships with a variety of stakeholders to become a trusted partner, working with clients and colleagues to add value to the organisation.”

“Donelle is an amazing BA with strong stakeholder engagement, a focus of putting herself in the customers’ shoes, challenging the status quo when needed, as well as an analytical and inquisitive mind to uncover requirements that people had not necessarily verbalised.
Donelle was the Business Case Lead in our project, a new challenge that she had not been involved in before. Not only was the business case delivered earlier than expected, the detail and quality set the bar for business cases within the Digital Services unit.”

“Donelle is smart and details focused, with amazing analytical skills that guide and direct wider business decisions. More than that though, she has the ability to see the big picture really quickly, and frames her activity always with commercial and business objectives.
She is a killer researcher, always looking to uncover the opportunity. Always professional, a great, collaborative team member who contributes amazing tangible value with measured outputs; a tech and web whizz to boot, super positive and the best pocket rocket to take any project to optimum delivery.”
