who we are

Talas Consulting Ltd. was created by Director Amy Worsfold in 2016 in response to an overwhelming need for her skills as a quality InterAction Data Steward. For the five years prior to this Amy had been working freelance for firms all over the world, thanks to a trusted informal partnership with the LexisNexis InterAction team.

Nimo Richmond was one of the first Senior Managers that Amy worked with in 2011. The two formed a close professional relationship and continued to work as a team for different organisations. When Nimo had her second child and decided to work for herself it made sense for Amy and Nimo to go into business together.

We become a limited company in 2017, recruiting and training a core team of experienced and reliable data stewards to support us and our clients.

With so many firms in need, and so few proven Data Stewards available, we began training suitable candidates from a range of sectors in our unique and efficient style of stewarding: remote, flexible, and always adaptive to the needs of the project and client. Talas Consulting is now a thriving team of six with over 70 years of experience with data between us.

Testimonials

"When I needed some extra help with data quality tasks in our CRM system, I asked Amy and Nimo if they could provide me with a data steward. I was very impressed with the person Talas provided us: she arrived fully trained on how to use our CRM system and needed very little supervision on various data quality tasks. Amy and Nimo are approachable and easy to work with and I would recommend them to anyone looking for some extra help with their data quality work."
