Matt Hobbs is a Chief Growth Officer at dunnhumby. Colleagues describe them as "I have had the great pleasure of working with Matt for over 20 years at three great organisations: IBM, PWC and Accenture. Over that period, working with Matt has included some of the most satisfying and enjoyable periods of my career, from both a personal and professional perspective. From the start we just gelled, through our similar perspectives on how we could help our clients innovate to become more customer-oriented, cemented by a shared sense of humour. From defining and setting up the next generation internet bank for a leading UK building society, to establishing a customer consulting practice for PWC from scratch, to building the #1 Salesforce professional services business in the UK for Accenture, we have delivered some great work together and had a lot of fun in doing so. What stands out for me about Matt is that he is a natural, inspiring leader who: - Is fiercely independent-minded and is always prepared to challenge the established orthodoxy with bold, new ideas - Sets out an inspiring vision for the future of any initiative he leads, one that is always grounded in business insight - Brings a laser-like focus on the priorities at hand, while blocking out irrelevant background noise - Has the confidence, empathy and intellect to develop trusted relationships with senior executives - Brings the energy and storytelling ability to take people on the journey with him and to inspire loyalty from his team. Above all, Matt has become a great friend, and someone whom I would trust completely to run any enterprise and make it into a success." and "Matt is a highly qualified and experienced leader. He is able to create a vision and take consulting businesses into new and exciting areas. I have found him an inspiring individual to work with. "
