Meet our team:
Jeremy Oughton
I’m Jeremy Oughton, and I am an experienced business consultant and leadership coach.
I began business coaching in 2018 because I realised I had a genuine passion for helping individuals and businesses achieve their full potential.
I have lived and worked all around the world and have been coaching and consulting long before starting EST: Executive Coaching and Mentoring. It was in 2018 that I decided to take my passion seriously and start achieving some of my own goals. I have worked in the leadership and development sector since 1994 and began to develop my own learning and development journey with MSc in Information Technology as the first step on my coaching and mentoring journey. I then completed a Master of Business Administration (MBA) qualification, before completing my Advanced Certification in Executive Coaching to focus on helping executives and leaders.
During my 30+ years in business, I have worked with a wide network of professionals, spanning the public and private sectors, to offer them specific, measurable, and actionable solutions so they can gain confidence, excel, and achieve their goals.
But the most satisfying thing of all? Helping people achieve their goals while creating a healthy work-life balance. And in some cases, business leaders have finally been able to tip the scales so they can enjoy everything life has to offer – not just work.
Nick Olive
I’m Nick Olive, a highly experienced commercial leader who has held high-profile roles in major companies, including Grand Metropolitan, Burton, Dixons (now Currys), General Electric and Nord Anglia Education.
I have a strategic and analytical mind complemented by a diverse range of business development, operations management, and communications skills and experience.
Education and training has always been at the heart of my work. I have a proven track record of successfully leading change through impactful initiatives such as product development and improved service delivery to help UK schools and other skills and vocational organisations achieve growth.
Some of my notable and recent achievements have been with organisations such as CfBT (now Education Development Trust), Nord Anglia Education, and the University of Warwick, to deliver market-oriented solutions through innovation in partnerships, technology design, and support leaders with a clear route to market.
I have a degree in Business Studies, a Level 6 Chartered Management Institute qualification, Six Sigma Green Belt Foundation, and hold practitioner level in Prince 2 and MSP (Managing Successful Programmes). I’m also a member of the Chartered Institute of Marketing and EFQM Trainer/Assessor which all combine to give me a wealth of expertise in coaching and mentoring other business leaders.
My passion for coaching and mentoring is rooted in my belief in the potential of others. Seeing others perform at their best and achieve their goals, whether as individuals or as part of a team, brings me real joy. I firmly believe in leading “from the back,” and focus on bringing teams together and providing support to foster collective achievements.
