Director

Work Experience

I have operated at Board level over the last 8 years.

I have had significant experience in Financial Services, Retail, Automotive and Manufacturing. I have experience in terabyte volume real time data processing into warehouses as well as deploying leading edge web enabled products and services with and without re-engineering. The most recent CRM B2B systems and Strategy I developed have become market leaders in the automotive field and seen these significantly contribute to growing the business from $0 to $40 million

Over the last 5 years of my career I have been in an entrepreneurial environment, operating as Board director responsible for group IT at a European level with offices in Spain, France, Germany and Netherlands. I have also worked closely with our North American offices and developed international strategies. My commercially focussed attitude and interpersonal skills have enabled me to work at Senior Director level with Customers and Suppliers alike. During this time I have held more than purely an IT role specifically in the last 18 months as Executive director my responsibilities have included Product Marketing and Account Director for major customers.

I have developed and implemented Business Plans, Product Development strategy and Product Marketing collateral.

My experience at a strategic level and hands on experience in managing software resources, both developers and systems infrastructure, across multiple locations and cultures has exposed me to most of the problems and challenges that this brings. I have had considerable success in delivering quality projects ontime, on budget. I am open-minded and believe in using “best of Breed” suppliers where appropriate . My extensive experience in contract negotiations has provided me with the confidence to negotiate the very best of deals. One of the recent deals involved the supplier taking on all the project risk. I have a strong belief that IT must not only complement the Business strategy but also demonstrate significant commercial benefits

I have experience in growing businesses and rigtsizing operationsand have run business units with full P&L accountability. Team sizes have varied from 3 to 110 depending on the role.

My philosophy is “ make it happen ”, I have energy, drive and enthusiasm supported by an entrepreneurial flair. I have repeatedly demonstrated that I am the person that makes the impossible a reality!
