About Jonathan Simon Pollock

I have been fortunate enough to have the opportunity to not only work in diverse multinational companies but also had the pleasure of working outside of the UK. Returning from the United States after running a consultancy business for three and a half years, I joined BG Group, an international leader in the exploration, production and exportation of Oil, Gas and pioneers in the lucrative LNG market. After 6 years with BG I am now an Independent IT Project Consultant through Plix Group Limited, working with clients on large scale IT projects across a wide spectrum of deliverables.
