Meet our speaker; Sue Wright
Sue is the inspiration and driving force behind Exporter Services.
Sue developed her wealth of experience managing international trade for Engineering and Manufacturing companies. She ensured HMRC compliance and handled multiple parties in cross-border trade. Building on her practical knowledge and postgraduate study in international trade, she launched Exporter Services in 2010.
Delivering training in international trade was her first passion, and she continues to enjoy teaching people about import and export. Her experience in training revealed a need for bespoke support services for SMEs requiring technical help with international trade. As a result, the Exporter Services helpdesk was created.
Recently, she has led the development of the company’s international trade audit and compliance checks. She feels passionate about this work, saying, “Businesses often don’t realise they could save money on export and import processes.” Sue adds, “We visited one business and, by reviewing their systems, we found they could improve their compliance and save more money than it cost for our review. That’s a win-win.” She believes international trade can be complex, so seeking expert advice is often worthwhile.
“I just love helping people import and export. Initially, people worry about the complexities or the procedures. Being able to explain it and seeing them realise they can do it themselves, or use our helpdesk for advice, is incredibly rewarding.”
Sue is a Fellow of the Institute of Export and International Trade (FIEx Grad).
