Our history

Optimum was formed in 1998, by Sarah Kirk, David Hankins and Ursula Walker, with the purpose of creating a training consultancy that could deliver excellence in a fast-changing market.

Since then, we have grown to a team of 40, working on projects all over the UK. Our City of London base in the Barbican houses core management staff, while training consultants are deployed both in our training centre and on client sites.

A professional approach to training

“We were really impressed with the Optimum consultants and their professional approach and commitment to the project. They worked hard to ensure that they fully understood our requirements and to ensure that the staff enjoyed the training they received.”
