ABOUT ME
I am a customer-centric business technology leader with 20 years of international experience having operated at board level translating business needs into executable outcomes in diverse environments spanning from Retail Banking to Healthcare to Retail and from entrepreneurial, PE-backed, SMEs to global FTSE100s
My track record as a ‘strategic problem solver’ transforming IT functions to best-in-class, successfully driving business change programmes, mitigating IT risks and executing digital strategies may not be unique, however I take great pride to ALWAYS deliver and exceed my client's expectations
Born and raised in a highly entrepreneurial family restaurant business I early on learned the value of true customer centricity, something I could develop further during some 10 years in international sales and marketing roles - I remain truly passionate about leading change towards excellence enabling business growth whilst enhancing customer and end-user experience
In 2011 I decided to leave the 'perm' world to build a rapport and business around what I excel at - resolving strategic problems in IT
2014, I relocated back to the UK and I reside in Monton / Worsley, just outside central Manchester, which gives me easy assess to the NW, London and flights across the globe
Personally, I am passionate about cooking and leading a healthy life style, keeping fit and working out on a regular basis and I enjoy spending time with my two teenage children, travelling, golfing and exploring food and new interesting places
