“Hayhurst & Co worked with our senior team following a significant service redesign project. They were involved at every stage of our journey as a new exec team, from leadership training and coaching, to customer service and strategic planning. The level of impact this achieved has exceeded expectations, motivated team members and helped us truly become a high performing team.
Constructively challenging us, supporting us and allowing us to have fun along the way, has led to a really immersive experience giving exceptional results. Our broader teams are now also engaging with training from H&Co to ensure a consistent, efficient and resourceful approach with a wider reaching impact”

“We have really enjoyed working with Hayhurst & Co. We chose them for their team's experience, strong project management, and how they interpreted our brief. We found that their thoughtful and inclusive approach built trust with all of our stakeholders - crucial for a project like this which requires buy-in from start to finish. They delivered exactly as promised, on time and within budget. We're glad they'll now help us ensure our new strategic vision is realised.”

“We engaged Hayhurst & Co to help us move beyond the typical marketing team and to truly excel as leaders in our field. Vicky has been able to understand our University, each of our team members, and the challenges we need to overcome with ease and poise. Her ability to challenge, coach and engage people is second-to-none – which is why within just one week of our first session we felt and saw a notable difference in how the team were operating. The great thing about Vicky’s approach is that she is committed to actions which move us forward in a tangible way. I wouldn’t work with anyone else.”
HEATHER ELLIS
Director of Marketing, University of Central Lancashire
“I came to Hayhurst & Co to help me step further in to my leadership stretch zone and ready myself for my next role. My coach, Danielle, had an amazing ability to really get the most out of me in each session. The work we did has been a game-changer in terms of shifting my mindset and behaviours. As a result, I am operating with more confidence, purpose, and impact in my leadership role.
I would 100% recommend working with Danielle, my coaching experience with her has been transformational on both a personal and professional level.”
MIRANDA WALTERS
Deputy Director of Student Recruitment Marketing, University of Leeds
“We recently worked with Hayhurst & Co to deliver training for our marketing and comms team away day of around 70 people. Running this session for the entire team ensured everyone was aligned, fostered a shared understanding, and built momentum for real change. The session itself was well-structured and engaging, striking the right balance between theory, discussion, and practical takeaways that the team could apply immediately. Following the session, we’ve already circulated a list of actions to improve our ways of working.
Organising the away day was seamless - H&Co took care of everything in terms of delivery, which was a huge help to us when we’re so busy. From a cost perspective, when considering the per-person investment, it was excellent value for money. Overall, it was an incredibly worthwhile experience and there’s already an appetite for more training like this.”

“Hayhurst & Co’s Student Journey Mapping Session was invaluable in a review of our student recruitment marketing and communications. They helped us identify key points of the recruitment cycle where we needed to focus more engagement activity, and their extensive knowledge of the sector and current trends has informed our allocation of resources for optimal impact.”
CLAIRE BROWNLIE
Director of Student Futures, Liverpool Hope University
“Vicky facilitated our marketing and recruitment team away day recently. The team learnt a lot from Vicky, who is clearly a leader in her field and very good at what she does. She helped us understand our priorities and translate them into meaningful and feasible actions, whilst having fun at the same time.”

“We commissioned Hayhurst & Co to deliver their Leadership Training with with our management team. We started by building a strong theoretical foundation, and the 4-week gap between sessions gave participants valuable time to test and implement their learnings. The second workshop, which featured direct feedback and focused team time, stood out as particularly valuable - providing uninterrupted space for immediate practice and actionable discussions.
The concentrated team time which is rare in day-to-day work, gave participants the opportunity to collaborate and reflect deeply on challenges, reinforcing the value of time away from regular duties. The programme left participants with a sense of renewed focus and practical strategies to enhance both individual and team performance, proving to be a meaningful investment in personal and professional growth.”
