About Bryan Davies
With all the skills of a Chief Product Officer, Chief Transformation Officer, Managing Director, and Chief Operating Officer, I have led global business transformations at RELX that have driven rapid revenue growth.As a senior digital product leader with a focus on growth, I specialise in building innovative and commercially successful products, services, and businesses within the information and analytics economy. I bring a deep understanding of how culture impacts performance, coupled with a strong track record of cultivating relationships. As an expert in organisational design, I align business strategies with effective execution. My early career as an engineering leader with the Royal Navy, ABB, and Daimler Chrysler has honed my ability to lead and deliver exceptional results in complex environments.Selected Achievements:• Transforming a business which had grown by 1% p/a over a decade into a dynamic, customer focussed Division expanding by a market beating 5% p/a at the same time as significantly reducing costs.• Turning around the culture of a team to one where collaboration, innovation, commercial thinking and calculated risk taking thrived, raising its employees NPS score from -17 to +23 in less than a year, and to +52 in three. • Designing and delivering a commercial strategy beating the set revenue target of $2.7m p/a by more than 350% ($13m) in a year, before growing its revenue to $60m p/a. • Creating AI enabled ‘ScienceDirect Topics’ for the world’s largest STM research information platform, significantly improving discoverability, user engagement and usage. ‘Topics’ is now one of Elsevier’s biggest traffic drivers.• Making substantial revenue from the large multinational pilot customer of a new “Platform as a Service” offering integrating customer and publisher data and leveraging machine learning technology. After my early career as an Engineering Officer in the Royal Navy, I worked as an Engineer for ABB and Daimler Chrysler, global providers of railway signalling systems. I then moved into digital transformation at Elsevier, as a Programme Director delivering finance, production, fulfilment, customer satisfaction and business development innovations. This included the migration of production data during a major production tracking systems upgrade, and the deployment of new CRM systems. I am now keen to find a senior-level career-defining role, where my product, technical, people, commercial, organisational and change management skills can deliver innovative and sustainable digital transformation and commercial growth.
