Alison O'Dornan MEng ASIP

I am an experienced NED and key advisor, with expertise in leadership, strategy and finance with a proven track record in chairing boards, and board committees.

As a partner at Torvius Capital, I connect high growth businesses to investors, and act as key advisor and non-executive to companies post successful fund raising. Prior to raising children I was Chief Investment Officer at Hassium Asset Management and had a substantial career managing investments for private clients, hedge funds and pension funds. I am also a qualified Executive Coach, NLP Practitioner and experienced public speaker renowned for developing leadership, communication and persuasion skills, and inspiring others to inspire themselves.

The greatest strength I bring to boards is cognitive diversity through the knowledge and insights I have gained of the strategic and leadership challenges across a diverse range of businesses, including managing, growing and selling my own private business.
