Toby Barker
Toby is a co-founder of 3P Consultants and has experience of different business areas, both domestically and internationally. Following a stint as an English language teacher and Deputy School Manager in Paris, he spent the next 17 years working in HSBC and NatWest.
He gained extensive experience in people management, strategic planning, business, commercial and corporate banking, business growth and financial analysis. These skills have allowed him to understand how businesses run and the pitfalls that many small businesses fall into.
In 2021, he joined Xcel Health as the Operations Manager and later Chief Operating Officer where he was responsible for HR, marketing, operations, website creation, business planning, strategy and business development.
Working hand in hand with the directors and business owners, in 2 years he was able to grow many aspects of the business. During his time with Xcel Health, the business grew from 4 to over 50 employees and turnover increased by a factor of 8. The company is now the fastest growing provider of physiotherapy services to the NHS and the largest private physiotherapy clinic in Kent.
Away from work, Toby is a keen follower of football and enjoys running. He is interested in languages and tries to practice them as often as he can. He has 2 grown up children and a teenager and loves going for walks with his dogs.
Dorothee Barker
Dorothee is a co-founder of 3P Consultants with extensive experience in business operations, team leadership and customer service.
She started her career as a journalist for Eurosport News before moving to the corporate world. After a few formative years in the banking industry (HSBC), she joined the Fayat group where she became Operations Manager for the region of Poland for their building equipment and asphalt plant activity.
This allowed Dorothee to acquire and hone a wide range of skills, spanning from team management and problem solving, to project planning, presenting and commercial dealings.
Dorothee continued her career in the corporate world and worked for some of the leading companies in their fields (Bose, John Deere) and has a real passion for operations and team management.
When she has some free time, you will find Dorothee in the stables (where she indulges her passion for horse-riding), or on a running trail. At home, she enjoys spending time with her family and dogs.
