Lucy Bracken BA (Hons) MSc

After graduating Lucy worked on large new product launches and market research in the management consultancy arm of Touche Ross. This was followed by three years in Corporate Recovery, as an investigator on behalf of the Administrators, the Serious Fraud Office and the FBI. She also did a law conversion degree.

Wishing to leave the large business environment, she set up her own corporate and event floristry business, Steel Magnolias. After 10 years of successful partnership which included a Mayfair shop, a turnover of just under £1m, a loyal workforce and some hard won devotion from customers, and with significant experience of the difficulties facing small businesses, an offer to sell to a venture capital company was accepted.

Lucy has now embarked on a new venture to train as an osteopath with a view to opening a large city based clinic focused on the cradle to grave osteopathic support.
