ABOUT MEHi, I'm Steve, a PM with 15+ years working on large scale business transformation. I started my career in engineering which helped me understand the inner workings of complex IT systems and I then progressed into project and programme management. I'm very comfortable with technical delivery but also equally passionate about business change - working closely with business functions to ensure they reap the benefits of new technology coming their way. Throughout my career I've managed to forge a reputation as someone who 'knows how to get things done' – as such, I'm regularly assigned to lead highly critical and highly visible projects within organisations. The majority of my experience is in Telecoms but I have also managed projects in Media, Events & Travel.
