With over 20 years of experience in technology and leadership, I have a proven track record of transforming, scaling, and enhancing IT and Digital functions. I’ve led both small and large teams in organisations of up to 1,000 staff and am interested in strategic leadership roles - such as CIO, CTO, GM or Head of IT - where I can deliver value beyond simply keeping the lights on. I specialise in aligning IT strategies with business objectives, and have helped launch new products to market and create new revenue streams. Throughout my career, I’ve evolved IT operating models, built new capabilities, and led complex digital transformation initiatives. I understand the value of customer experience, both internal and external, and believe in balancing CX with technical needs. I’ve reduced risk through cybersecurity uplift programs, strengthened business resilience via modern, scalable cloud systems, and established data infrastructure to drive insight-led decisions. I'm also a strong advocate for the transformative potential of AI, believing in a strategic and value-driven approach to its adoption. Known as a people-first and outcome-driven leader, I attract and develop high-performing teams, promote a culture of learning and inclusion, and drive engagement through continuous improvement. I pride myself on being commercially astute, with strong budget management skills and a focus on ROI. A trusted collaborator across the business, I focus on shared outcomes, clear communication, and pragmatic execution, all while consistently delivering tangible results.
