I am an entrepreneur software developer and systems architect. I am the founder of multiple successful automotive software companies that have since been sold to large organisations including Cox Automotive and Citnow Group. I’ve been developing software in the automotive industry since 2001 when I wrote a product for car showrooms called e-Goodmanners that went into over 1500 dealers and span across multiple countries, the software was running throughout the whole VWG network in the UK as well as the majority of Toyota and Lexus dealers in the UK.With the AutoSLM product I continued to develop the original concepts of lead management systems but in a much more dynamic way. We were the first to embrace mobile platforms and our system performed equally well on iPad, iPhone, Android phone and Android tablets. We developed stock integration systems to such an extent that we have become a full partner with Gumtree to provide automated stock feeds.Technology and entrepreneurship are the driving forces behind my career, allowing me to turn ideas into reality and lead teams toward remarkable goals. Whether through hands-on programming or strategic leadership, I thrive on creating companies and solving complex problems through innovation.I’m currently working as consultant to the automotive software industry to help software vendors and dealers link systems together and building custom solutions to problem that occur.I’m happy to chat to anyone about how I can help recommend or build the right solution to solve any problem you may have. Feel free to get in touch.
