Gillian is co-founder of Anatomic Consulting with my partner Steve. With over 40 years of global experience across five continents, she brings a unique blend of AI strategy and extensive knowledge, process reengineering, change management, project management and human behaviour specialisation to help care home owners and property professionals streamline operations, increase efficiency, and deliver greater value.
After a fulfilling career that spanned international banking, government consulting, and SME business transformation projects, she has returned to her roots in the UK with a mission: to empower organisations that serve others—particularly in care homes and the property sector.
Gillian’s background enables her to deliver high-impact solutions, combining cutting-edge AI with a deep understanding of the human side of business. For her, success isn’t just about optimising processes; it’s about creating positive, lasting change and amazing cultures for those at the heart of your business.
Stephen is Gillian’s partner in both business and in life. He makes sure we run smoothly with our systems and processes.

With a career spanning 40 years, Steve brings unparalleled expertise in business transformation, project management, and business reengineering, making him an invaluable asset to our clients in the care home and property sectors.
Steve’s background is built on a wealth of experience across both the UK and Australia, where he successfully delivered numerous large-scale, complex projects. As a seasoned property developer, project manager, and business analyst, he has consistently driven results through a balanced approach of strategic insight and hands-on execution. His projects have ranged from IT transformations to business-wide operational improvements, equipping him with a deep understanding of how AI and automation can enhance efficiency and profitability.
Having spent five decades in Australia, Steve has returned to the UK, bringing his extensive financial and management consulting experience to our clients. His ability to streamline operations and implement sustainable solutions helps organisations reduce costs, optimise resources, and navigate today’s competitive landscape.
Our passion for improving care homes is personal. Like many, we’ve experienced the complexities of finding quality care for our elderly parents and family members, and we understand the unique challenges faced by care home owners. In an industry that relies on people, care, and attention, administrative and operational burdens often steal valuable time from residents. We aim to reduce these burdens through workflow redesign, AI and automation, allowing your staff to focus on what truly matters—providing exceptional care.
For property professionals, we bring insights into how AI and workflow automation can transform the lettings and property management processes, creating efficiencies that benefit both tenants and landlords. Through many years of experience as property owners and developers, we understand the pressures you face, from compliance demands to the ongoing need for effective tenant management. My goal is to provide tools and processes that reduce administrative time, optimise workflows, and ultimately improve client satisfaction.
In addition to our technical expertise in AI and automation and our years of experience redesigning workflows is our human behaviour expertise. Gillian is a certified Wealth Dynamics practitioner which means that our approach goes beyond technology and business but to the personalities themselves working in the businesses. We work with clients to align AI strategies whilst strengthening the team to become world class, making sure solutions fit not only the business needs but also the people behind them. Our consulting style is hands-on and personalised. we don’t believe in “one-size-fits-all” solutions—each business is unique, and we work closely with you to understand your specific challenges, goals, and values. Our approach allows you to implement AI and automation in ways that are practical, sustainable, and aligned with your mission and values.
Whether you’re a care home owner looking to reduce time spent on administrative tasks and want to introduce technologies for better care, or a property professional seeking innovative ways to enhance tenant satisfaction, we are here to support you. Together, we can design a future where your team’s energy is freed up for the people you serve and where technology enhances—not replaces—the human touch.
If you’re ready to explore how AI and automation can help your business thrive, we’d love to connect. Please reach out, and let’s start this journey together.
Supporting Gillian and Stephen are a team of professional advisors and administrators. They believe that it is important to know when another professional can offer better support and knowledge than they can provide, especially in the world of AI where changes happen daily. Their network is extensive, and they will work with you to find the right people to help.
