any advice re bad tiling job would be appreciated

if you can get the tiles off the wall now and soak them overnight the adhesive will come off as it is tubbed. Most decent tillers don't touch the stuff. It has its uses but is overpriced (splashbacks) for the amount you get.

Sorry to read about your predicament. I have found her on mybuilder and then her website. It is evident that tiling is not her forte, and there is very little to show any real experience or expertise. I really hope you get it sorted

She doesn't know how to prep the job, she doesn't know how to tile. She should not be tiling for money.

Its as you have said , Mosaic is not flush and tiles not even in line with the next joint. There is serious lippage to the tiling. The floor tiles have broken due to not having adhesive under them . The setting out is poor, wall tile joints do not line up, cutting is poor. Really the tiling shoud have been taken behind the vanity unit.
Adhesive in the joints showing through.
Grout residue on the walls in places.
