A senior manager with +15 years experience, and an extensive, well developed network of contacts across the startup ecosystem, in addition a track record of rapidly scaling new products / markets from zero.Most effective in new business within developing startup markets. Using knowledge, understanding, and extensive networks to enter undisclosed private markets, with limited public information. These attributes have successfully allowed the organisation to access to undeveloped markets and opportunities to secured business success.Proven record of evaluating and partnering with investors and startups for long term gain. Including at Meta partnering with +200 startups (with a pipeline of +700) and +30 investors (with a pipeline of a further +150). Whilst externally being a board advisor for four successful scaleups, providing strategic oversight and drive for fundraising.On top of strong financial training received at Citi & EY, a deep knowledge of the startup ecosystem, and the war wounds from being an exited founder. The skills I rely on the most are the intangible ones; humility, empathy, hard work, knowing what “good looks like” (both in people and output), cross-functional collaboration and perhaps most importantly for any leader, bringing those around me on the journey.
