BRIGHT DISPOSITION LTD
Bright Disposition is a business consultancy service specialising in Marketing, Brand and Product Development. We work with global manufacturers, brands, retailers and service providers.
In 2023 we launched our own range of gifts and stationery, which is available to buy on ETSY.
The business was founded in 2015 by former Buying Manager Alexandra Wiltshire. It is now very much a family business since husband Dan came on board in 2020.
Our vision is to create, market and sell beautiful and commercial products and services. We do this by using our experience of the industry, market knowledge, intelligence and creative thinking, to find practical solutions that enable our clients to shine.
Our Bright Disposition product ranges and designs are inspired by the Warwickshire countryside, our love of travel and Christian faith. Find out more about our inspiration.
COMMERCIAL EXPERIENCE – MEET THE TEAM
Alexandra Wiltshire (née Miles)
“I have always been a shopaholic and love the buzz of retail.
I started my career as a Graduate Management trainee at WHSmith, buying greetings cards and seasonal gifting. Since then I have had the privilege to work for some amazing brands including Harrods, Paperchase and Sainsbury’s developing own label gifts and stationery, working my way up to Buying Manager level.
In 2015 I started Bright Disposition Ltd and we launched our first market research report about the Back to School market. As the business has developed we have taken on more branding and marketing projects. We also help overseas manufacturers develop their businesses in the UK market.
I’m passionate about product development and launched my own Bright Disposition range of stationery and prints in 2023.
I live in Leamington Spa with my husband Dan and our two little boys.”

“In 2009 I graduated from Nottingham Trent University with a degree in Fashion & Textile Management. I immediately joined the graduate scheme at Sainsbury’s to become a General Merchandise Buyer. The 18 month scheme gave me a thorough insight into the entire business, before securing my first permanent role as a Stationery Buyer.
Within my three years on Stationery, I launched the children’s craft sub-brand Get Creative, and bought Pens and Accessories, working with key brands and developing new own label products. Following that I moved to the Gifting department where I purchased the Halloween, Fireworks, Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day ranges.
I have three young boys who keep me on my toes and are already opening my eyes to advances in technology and generational differences impacting the retail world. I am thrilled to have joined the Bright Disposition team as a consultant and look forward to being part of such an innovative and inspiring business.”
Daniel Wiltshire
“I first met Alex in 2015 when we worked for a stationery company together. We are now married with two little boys who keep us busy! I now work part time for Bright Disposition, helping out with competitor shops, pricing checks, editing photos, producing mood boards and helping to run the new Etsy shop.”
BRIGHT DISPOSITION THE STORY SO FAR…
Here is a statement from Bright Disposition founder Alex Wiltshire:
“In 2015 I started Bright Disposition Ltd. with the vision of being able to use my retail experience to advise and inspire the industry to create and market beautiful and commercial products.
Market research, product, brand and business development have become core areas of the business since then.
I approach life and business with curiosity, optimism and a sense of adventure! For me integrity and authenticity are essential values in business. I also want to grow a business that is creative, innovative and has a sense of fun. I hope this will be your experience of working with Bright Disposition.
In an ever changing market we love working with businesses of all sizes, there is always a light bulb moment and we always find we can add value.”
