I am passionate about empowering organizations to thrive through technology. With over 20 years of experience as Head of IT, IT Director, and CIO across healthcare, defence, and tech sectors, I excel at delivering large-scale digital transformations in demanding, regulated environments.

My strength lies in aligning IT strategy with business goals to reduce costs, accelerate delivery, and minimize risk. I’m skilled at guiding multi-national teams, simplifying complex platforms, and driving compliance with ISO 27001, GDPR, HIPAA, NIST, and Zero Trust frameworks.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗙𝗼𝗿:
• Championing technology change that cuts costs (up to 55%), accelerates delivery, and reduces risk.
• Transforming cloud, cyber, and core infrastructure whilst driving compliance (ISO 27001, GDPR, HIPAA, NIST).
• Coaching and developing dispersed, high-agility teams—creating motivated squads that achieve results faster and smarter.

𝗦𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗔𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀:
• Delivered a multi-cloud consolidation programme reducing costs by £1M annually—faster onboarding, 80% SLA improvement, zero downtime.
• Slashed IT expenditure by £7.5M+ in major build and transformation projects via smart vendor management and robust design.
• Turned around failing IT environments—halving costs, closing high-priority security gaps, and ensuring rock-solid uptime (99.98%+).
• Modernised tech and AV architectures for complex, regulated environments (hospitals, military, rail, real estate, retirements homes).
• Achieved zero audit findings and gold-standard compliance across multiple organisations.

𝗖𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗵𝘀:
• Strategic IT/digital transformation | Cloud migration & platform simplification
• Enterprise cyber security | Data privacy (GDPR, HIPAA) | Risk reduction
• Complex stakeholder management | Board-level influence
• International team leadership & coaching (teams, 12+ countries)
• Operational excellence: budget control (£2m–£10m), efficiency, and cost reduction
• Agile delivery | ITSM (ITIL), business continuity, and resilience
• Vendor management, contract negotiation, and spend optimisation

When IT costs are climbing, delivery slows, or you need a fresh approach to get things back on track—I’ll bring energy, urgency, and the blueprint for transformation.
