Since leaving Grand Metropolitan plc in 1997, shortly after it merged with Guinness plc to form Diageo plc, I have had a wide range of interim management assignments, mainly focusing on business-critical transformation and technology change, in well known multinational companies.

These roles included the Programme Manager for BP’s Global Telecoms Sourcing Programme reporting to the Head of Vendor Management (Global Network Services), a Programme Manager for a major IT Infrastructure overall in EMI Recorded Music reporting to the VP IT Infrastructure & CTO and a pre sales support role as an Enterprise Architect for a consortium that executed an IT Transformation programme for Betfair.

I am currently also a member of the managing committee for Straxia Limited on a Non Executive Director basis and have been a Member of the Institute of Directors since 2004.
