We’re pleased to introduce the refreshed Colin Bourne Mediator brand and new website.

Colin has spent more than four decades working with people in negotiation and dispute resolution. His career as a trade union officer and employment barrister, together with his mediation training, gives him a considered perspective on workplace and commercial conflict.

What comes through when speaking with Colin is the care he takes to understand a dispute before trying to move it forward. His approach is calm, persistent and grounded in listening to the people involved.

We’ve worked with Colin to refresh his brand, build his website and LinkedIn page, and shape a 12-month plan for his practice. We’re continuing to support him with content, prospecting and business development. We’re proud to play a part in making his experience easier for clients and referrers to discover.

Experienced CEDR-accredited mediator Colin Bourne helps businesses, professionals and individuals resolve commercial, workplace and complex disputes.
