I am an accomplished IT Director and Sales Leader, with a strong growth mindset and a progressive career working across diverse sectors. Over the course of my career, I have been recognised for my success in leading and executing the end-to-end delivery of complex IT projects and programmes, including implementation of cloud and technology solutions. In addition, as a business owner and growth leader, I have been instrumental in driving sales performance through effective client engagement, negotiation and recommendation of suitable products and solutions to meet client needs. One of my core strengths is my ability to quickly identify, troubleshoot and resolve complex technical issues as a tactical problem solver and fire fighter, to deliver measurable benefits and results to businesses. Furthermore, I offer a unique blend of skills across the IT, business and property management arenas, which allows me to offer organisation’s a deep insight and understanding of the different technological problems, opportunities and challenges ahead of them. As a people manager, I am passionate about leading, mentoring, and empowering teams to drive standards, and I work collaboratively across the business to deliver business-critical initiatives. Notable successes include:✔️ Reviewing internal and client systems and policies to ensure compliance with new GDPR and cyber security regulations from the IPO. ✔️ Negotiating, winning and managing a significant contract with a leading biotech firm specialising in drug discovery, to drive growth, revenue and profitability of the company. ✔️ Minimising software piracy for Microsoft in line with Anti-Piracy legislation as a key member of the team, due to a rise in the number of piracy issues across the UK.
