Specialist Areas: Organisational Behaviour, Workplace Culture, Human Resources, Corporate Entertainment

Since 2019, Claire Murphy has been our talented Office Manager and Personal Assistant to John Hayes. With Claire's help, we have overcome potential disasters - including our premises flooding on the day of our Digital Centre office opening party! Claire's quick thinking and dedication ensure that Champions' operations run smoothly, while her organisation keeps the office supply cupboard constantly topped up. Quick on her feet, her efficiency can be credited to her extensive career as a former dancer.

Following a Diploma in Musical Theatre, Dance and Drama from the Leicester College of Performing Arts, Claire joined The Show Team. As their Casting and Entertainment Executive, she was responsible for the casting of multiple European resorts. In 2014, she founded The Celtic Experience as their Choreographer and Producer, and performed her first show in just three months of the group's establishment.

Remaining in the entertainment industry, she was later an Agency Manager for Boogie Management before moving to Champions. In her previous role, Claire managed portfolios for a wealth of dancers, actors and musical theatre performers. Such an experience honed Claire's management skills, making her perfect for the role of Office Manager at Champions Speakers.

Whether she is performing at The Tower Ballroom in Blackpool or assisting the operations of the office, Claire embodies professionalism, talent and efficiency.
