Valuations Manager Tessa Stirling began her professional journey working for prominent organisations such as the Scotch Whisky Association and Sotheby’s.
After spending a year working and traveling in Australia, Tessa returned to the UK to work as a nanny for several families in Edinburgh and London. She then transitioned to self-employment as a personal organiser, offering a range of bespoke services including sourcing and supplying household staff, managing residential properties for families living abroad, editing manuscripts, personal shopping for high-profile clients as well as management of offices and rental properties. Tessa’s expertise also extended to personal shopping and tasks for actors and staff at the Edinburgh Fringe, showcasing her versatility and commitment to excellence.
Her career continued to evolve with office management roles, including recruitment and PA to senior partners in law firms, the National Galleries of Scotland and NHS Borders. One of her key roles involved working at the prestigious WS Society at the Signet Library as PA to the Chief Executive, and alongside that role, assisted with royal and high-profile events.
She is passionate about charitable work and fundraising, leading our valued Charity Committee and serving as a Mental Health First Aider.
