Louise Jensen

SBIN Founder & Chief Dot-Joiner · LJ Consultancy

I bring over 25 years of experience across coaching, operations, HR, talent acquisition, engineering, and business consultancy. I’m a natural connector who helps people clarify thinking, solve problems, and see new possibilities. I can support individuals and businesses with strategy, growth, people challenges, and creating the right conditions for meaningful progress and collaboration.

Seeking: I’m looking to connect with curious, open-minded people who care about what they’re building and the impact they’re having. I’m particularly drawn to founders, leaders, freelancers, and creatives who value collaboration, honest conversation, and community. I’m always interested in opportunities where I can help bring people together, unlock potential, and create practical momentum.
