Emily standing with a young business person smiling and discussing something in detail.

Government funding makes impossible ideas, possible. However, gaining a government grant funding isn’t easy. In fact, the process of identifying, accessing and managing government funding can be complex, competitive and time-consuming.

And no one knows that better than Emily Jeffrey.

During her 13 years at PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) and Deloitte, Emily handled hundreds of millions of dollars in government funding through grants and loan support. No matter your challenge, Emily has the in-depth knowledge and capability to beat it.
