About Alan Johnson

I’m at my best building teams who strive to deliver on challenging and sometimes extraordinarily aggressive targets. When challenges arise, I face them in a calm and focused manner and lead the team to deliver their best. I make decisions with confidence and I am recognized as being the 'calm in the storm' in times of crisis. The satisfaction of leading high performing teams and achieving great results are what make it all worthwhile.I’ve built my career on taking risks, so I don’t hesitate to step outside my comfort zone to pursue the opportunity to work with great companies around the world. Since I began my career over 25 years ago, I’ve sought out rapidly growing companies so I could learn faster and cover broader scopes.On 4 different occasions I relocated to access exciting opportunities on 3 different continents. And, every job I’ve had, whether local or international, has required extensive travel for work in remote, challenging environments. I’ve worked in Europe, Africa, North and South America and Australasia. I’ve enjoyed it all. I’ve presented to Governments, Boards, Management, Investors and successfully conveyed the clear vision of what we are doing and why, and I’m comfortable answering the difficult questions.All of this has allowed me to build a skillset that is international in breadth, and deep in technical, operational and business skills. Through these opportunities, a valuable leadership skill I’ve developed is a strong knowledge of how people across the world think, work and integrate.In short, I’m a motivated and driven senior executive with the goal to deliver clear results. I thrive in fast paced, dynamic, entrepreneurial companies with serious growth ambitions, and no shortage of interesting challenges.
