About Me

The Founder - Claire Birks

I created ‘Clairey Poppins’ to support founders and business owners who are building fast and need a trusted right hand to keep things running smoothly behind the scenes.

With 16+ years of experience supporting high-performing leaders—from startup founders to C-suite execs—I understand how quickly things move when you’re scaling. My role is to help you stay focused on the big picture while I handle the details that can’t fall through the cracks.

My Experience

I’ve supported leaders across corporate, startup, and SME environments, with experience including business consulting, HR, tech, construction, travel, and even quantum physics.

Across all these industries, one thing remains constant: the need for proactive support that adds real value. Each role has sharpened my ability to anticipate what’s needed before it’s asked for, solve problems quickly, and build systems that keep things running smoothly—so you can stay focused on growth.

My Expertise

I specialise in business operations, executive support, HR, bookkeeping, project management, and strategic planning—freeing up your time to focus on leading, growing, and innovating.

Whether it’s building out efficient systems, managing remote teams, handling complex travel and events, or keeping your books in order, I bring structure and calm to fast-moving businesses.

If you’re looking for a trusted, proactive partner to keep things running smoothly behind the scenes, I’d love to hear what you’re building and see how I can help.
