My main aim was speed to market, but in a scalable way.After travelling back and forth to California monthly for a year, I've handed the teams over to the US and am now focussing solely on the UK market again.I reluctantly(!) left both departments in June with 20+ staff and revenues rapidly growing, as I have a baby due imminently!

This is very much an "intrepeneur" role (being an entrepeneur in-house).A truly innovative product (a world-first for shopping centres), intu Pocket launched in July 2019. It utilises card-linked technology to enable customers to earn cashback when they shop at participating retailers, within intu shopping centres.intu Pocket is app-based and free for customers to download and use.I created the P&L, along with a 3 year plan - enabling intu to break-even after 18 months, as well as to gather anonymised shopping data (on a transactional level) from their customers - data that will be crucial for intu to understand their customers and to evolve the business based on their behaviours.The back-end technology was originally built by me - and I have now provided intu with a license. It's a state-of-the-art fully automated platform which processes customer data, transactions, payments, reporting and invoicing.I'm also responsible for the full product development, design, marketing and business development - including signing up over 150 stores - McDonald's, MAC Cosmetics, Superdry, Five Guys and more - to provide card-linked offers (CLO). I am essentially intu Pocket!Cashback is automatically earned by linking your existing debit/credit card(s) within the app and then making purchases with your card(s) as you normally would. You can then withdraw cashback earned via a bank transfer.
