About

I am a security & technology leader with almost 20 years of experience. I have helped businesses and led teams to spec, build, secure, sell and support enterprise-level products, infrastructure, and services. I have a working knowledge of various technologies, frameworks, regulations, and product/project management approaches. I help organisations develop their ideas and concepts into real-world applications and services and build the infrastructure, security, automation, policies, procedures, governance and controls to certify them against internationally recognised standards and regulations. Throughout my career, I have focused on building frictionless technology services with foresight for technology risk, information security, and data protection. My roles to date have all been broad in scope and multidiscipline. I have worked in and led many different areas of technology including IT services, operations, infrastructure, information security, DevOps, engineering, product, data protection, risk, agile delivery, technical pre-sales, and data/analytics. This experience has given me confidence in the service delivery and operation of numerous technology areas within complex and sometimes challenging environments. I have a proven ability to conceive, manage, and deliver complex work programmes while leading and developing the teams involved to their full potential. I am genuinely curious and interested in the evolving world of technology and security. I am enthused by meeting, working with, and leading proactive and hard-working people.
