Profile

  • I am a curious and creative professional who is interested in solving complex business problems by bringing together integrated solutions in an agile and flexible way.
  • With over 30 years? experience working in programs across the IT industry I bring an approach that puts creativity and flexibility first. I start by imagining the future model, then I build the transformation roadmap, reframing and developing the relevant existing services and developing new capabilities to address gaps. I bring agility as I look to constantly evolve that solution model, adapting to new information and challenges that arise every day to ensure the organisation is always heading towards the right outcomes.
  • I very much enjoy working with people, building strong, supportive relationships with those around me. My greatest satisfaction is to feel that I play a valuable role in helping others move forward together towards our shared goals. I love working in the Agile model as it really suits today?s complex and multi-dimensional programs. With my own teams, I try to lead ?from the rear?, to support, value and empower them to deal with complexity, uncertainty and constantly evolving requirements. I help them to make better decisions by asking them to reflect on the overall goals of the organisation and how they can best steer the path towards these.


MY PERSONAL GOALS

  • My desire is to work on projects that make a difference in the world, driving change that has a genuinely positive impact on people lives. 
  • This and knowing that I made other people feel good about themselves is what gives me great satisfaction.


MY SKILLS

  • I come from a strong infrastructure architecture background from which o moved into pre-sales, designing total outsourcing solutions that brought together business processes, people and technology transformation to deliver organisational goals and improved operational efficiency. 
  • After I moved to Switzerland I started consulting directly with clients leading many projects, mostly in the cloud space. 
  • Examples include:
    • data centre services transformation for a cloud first world
    • providing an Identity and Access Management service across cloud and on-premises environments
    • data centre to cloud migration strategies, building standardised public cloud landing zones using IaC and establishing a complex multivendor cloud platform integration program
