About

Experienced Commercial & Operations Executive, passionate about the hospitality industry with 20+ years sales, marketing, partnership and operational experience working across various verticals using hardware, software and integrated technology platforms. Joined Tevalis in 2010 as a founding employee (no 2) when a boot strapped company, successfully lead and delivering year on year 30% organic growth achieved by delivering strong revenues using Capex, SAAS & HAAS strategic models. Proud to announce in June 2024 we successfully delivered a £11.5m investment from the PE backed BGF fund to support our growth ambitions over the next 5 years. Consulted and helped clients deliver their digital goals throughout EMEA & APAC, also helping Tevalis to gain fiscal and trading compliance’s alongside creating and implementing digital transformation projects utilising our core products, new developments and 3rd party integrations. Tevalis now operating a global client base with our suite of technology being used by over 700 leading brands from Mid-market to Enterprise across 2500 locations in all sectors in hospitality including Irish Ferries, Harvey Nichols, Bannatyne Group, Chester Zoo, P&O Ferries, Silverstone, Betty’s and Taylor’s, Boxpark, EG Group, Village Hotels, Dorbie Pubs and many more. Joined Tevalis board of Directors in 2015 and C-Suite in 2022. Responsible for creating and executing sales, marketing and partnership strategies and processes whilst helping to drive development of new technology campaigns, products and applications to accelerate company revenue and brand growth, whilst implementing effective sales pipeline and lead tracking process to monitor performance against company targets and KPI’s. In 2024, a health scare gave me the chance to pause and re-evaluate where I invest my time and focus. That perspective led me to make the decision to step back from my C-Suite responsibilities. With a fantastic leadership team in place, I was able to do so while continuing to prioritise my health and focus on what I’m most passionate about: leading sales, building relationships, and driving growth. I remain fully committed to Tevalis and to driving the business forward. My focus is on strengthening our sales leadership, building stronger cross-functional teams, scaling with Enterprise operators, and delivering world-class POS, enterprise, and integration solutions. I’m proud to lead an exceptional team and continue building momentum as we work towards establishing Tevalis as a global technology partner within the hospitality industry.
