. Manley Email and Phone Number
Following a successful military career, I became an arborist until a spinal injury forced a change in circumstances. I moved into tech and worked in digital accessibility for some time before transitioning those skills to discoverability software, although accessibility remains front of mind, both digital and physical, and I sit on the board of an accessibility charity.I have a unique and varied portfolio of experiences which underpin my expertise, and I firmly subscribe to the importance of inspiring others. I have extensive experience of successfully resolving complex problems through use of digital technologies, an excellent all-round knowledge of technologies and how they can facilitate the improvement of customer and business efficiency. I have experience in leading the delivery of digital projects and programmes, ensuring they deliver their specified requirements and objectives, and an excellent working knowledge of the digital principles and best practice, and regional and national drivers surrounding digital delivery and transformation. Having helped the world’s largest e-commerce companies to enhance their customer experiences, proven myself as an expert in the field of Al-driven e-commerce, and consulted for governments and academia, I made the decision to step away from tech and am currently transitioning into a practical healthcare role.I very much enjoy solving problems and finding creative solutions. I am passionate about continuous improvement and apply this to my personal and professional contexts.I have exemplary communication skills (both written and verbal) and a particular strength is ability to adapt to any given audience.I am adaptable and thrive in scenarios where I need to think on my feet. I like learning new things, learn quickly (except for music - I am a terrible singer) and I have worked as the sole employee in the UK, through to being part of (and subsequently leader of) a team of over 200, for organisations numbering from 1, to thousands.I can also breathe fire, but my wife tells me off when I do.

Non ExecutiveBloomreach Jul 2020 - Nov 2020Mountain View, California, UsAs founder of the UK business, I set the tone that would make the UK >30% of the global business within three years. I leveraged my network and my character to attract talent and customers and built teams with a strong culture.Although technically astute, with a deep domain expertise, it was my reputation and ability to empathetically consult with senior executives that was instrumental in the company’s growth, starting the UK business from nothing and leaving a $900 million business (Bloomreach globally was valued at $2.2 billion), which powers over $200 Billion in digital commerce experiences, representing 25% of all retail eCommerce experiences in the US and UK. -

Ceo/FounderManley (Uk) Ltd Sep 2012 - Feb 2014After more than 8 years in senior leadership in the digital and marketing industries, I wanted to inspire other teams, while still delivering deep knowledge and intuitively sensing weaknesses in marketing campaigns and digital ideas. I need to ensure the teams I work with have both the knowledge and plan for what to do next.Manley (UK) was an independent consulting organisation, but I very quickly became very excited by what BloomReach were working with and within a year almost all of the team's time was being spent on BloomReach, so it made sense to step back and devote myself solely to bringing the message to the UK. -
Director Of SearchLbi Jan 2011 - Sep 2012London, London, GbDirector of Search, responsible for the P&L for the Search department and Exeter offices. I was responsible for supporting multi-million pound projects and fulfilling the role of Executive Sponsor across a portfolio of clients, whilst line managing the SEO, Search, tech, international and copywriting teams effectively and increasing profitability and smashing client retention targets.Additionally, I successfully managed change during the 2010 merger of LBi and bigmouthmedia, both during the integration and the subsequent service improvement project.Presented at a number of digital forums on topics as diverse as the semantic web or EU privacy legislation, I became mildly hated for the work I did advising subcommittee members on ‘Cookie Law', pre-GDPR.
