joined CIOT to oversee all IT, systems and digital leadership. David assisted with the development of an IT Strategy for the two charities which included new membership, finance and education systems. He subsequently led them through scoping and tendering for the new systems and put together a programme plan to deliver the new systems. David’s role was to reduce systems cost through better integration and use of the cloud; to facilitate the introduction of new flexible ways of working; reduce the costs of some internal administrative functions and improve management information. In addition, the new IT and systems reduce business continuity risk. CIOT’s new systems are focussed on providing better experiences for members, students and volunteers when interacting with the charity and enable “self service” which reduces the central overhead. CIOT and ATT are now completely cloud-based which will give them a totally flexible working environment. When needed they can work from home, on the move, or remotely without interruption or reduction in their effectiveness. Helen Whiteman, CEO of CIOT, added: “There has been no better time to test the effectiveness of our IT capabilities than through the sudden arrival of a global pandemic. All teams were able to work remotely in a matter of days enabling us to continue to deliver our business as usual as seamlessly as possible. That was certainly a huge relief! David led and supported us through our IT systems transformation ensuring we now have the right platforms in place to engage with all our stakeholders in a more dynamic, digital environment.”
