About us

Professional Success is a UK based consultancy, founded by Melanie McLean. Our work is primarily with senior professionals to help you win business and execute it well. Our clients are senior lawyers and bankers. We provide the strategic, business building and networking skills which are required nowadays to succeed in a fastmoving, changing and very demanding working environment.

Melanie McLean read law at Cambridge and worked as a capital markets lawyer. This taught her a great deal and honed the ability to survive on very little sleep. She then was recruited into investment banking by a client, stayed for 10 years and ultimately became a director of a UK investment bank.

Having sent her teams on training courses, she realised that the best training is given by those who have their own experience in the area as they know exactly what the client wants. "Professional Success" was born.

    

Associates

Our associates work with us on specific projects in their different areas of expertise.

We would be happy to hear from anyone with experience at a senior level both of professional life and of the business/corporate/banking world and a desire to join us as an associate. If this fits your profile, please contact us at associates@professionalsuccess.co.uk with your contact details, details of your relevant experience.

    

Our approach

We are committed to equality and diversity in terms of our approach to employees and associates.  While we expect excellent performance, we believe in giving people a chance in life.  We also expect our associates to exhibit an inclusive, constructive and supportive approach.  Our clients demonstrate integrity and a high degree of professionalism and so should we.

    

    

 

I simply wanted to thank you for all your time and trouble you have taken and in particular your excellent advice on how to change my practice (and my various practices) which I am trying to implement. Thanks for all your help.
