As Head of Production Services Michelle heads up Film London’s Filming and Locations team, championing and promoting London as a destination for filmmaking to potential film and TV clients.

Prior to this she worked as a consultant on various contracts across the UK, including with location management service Film Fixer. Michelle also headed up business development at London’s Royal Parks and, from 2003-2007 worked at Film London itself, where she was instrumental in setting up and launching the agency’s successful London Filming Partnership – a unique network of 500+ public and private bodies, companies and locations that work together to ensure London is able to deliver for major film and TV productions.
