In this high profile role, I worked closely with three Vice Presidents to manage 550 software engineers, 150 contractors and the company's software and hosting infrastructure, overseeing an annual expenditure of over US$100m.Prior to TELUS Agriculture and Consumer Goods, I was Finance Director at Safe Patient Systems, a medical technology company based in Solihull, West Midlands for three years and before that ran my own consultancy business for over ten years. From 1994 to 2003, I held a number of corporate finance and equity research positions in investment banking in London and Moscow. I am a qualified ACMA and hold both a first class honours degree and a Masters' degree from Birmingham University. I am a keen athlete, and have represented Team GB internationally as an Age Group triathlete since 2016.
