CURRENT CONTRACT

Crazy horse rider competitor in the Gaucho Derby – March 2020

If you’re on my site because you’re interested in the brain injury I had and how I overcame that and went onto complete the pioneer Gaucho Derby in Patagonia in March 2020 you might want to watch my interview with the Yorkshire Post online.

DAY JOB – to be resumed after March 2020 Coronavirus Lockdown

I am a freelance programme manager, project manager, account director and occasional adventurer. I have over 20 years experience in client facing technology and business transformation roles. I have worked with government clients and in the private sector… with a mix of regulated financial sector and fast moving big name brands.

I’m experienced, well qualified (Association of Programme Managers, Prince 2, Agile) and security cleared to 2020. I’m based in the North of England, but am happy for my next thing to take me anywhere. Get in touch, I’m always happy to talk through an idea.

My profile on Linked In also has details of all my previous Programme Manager, Project Manger, Service Delivery, Digital and Marketing roles. Let me know if you’d like to speak to my referees.

I have successfully led £multi-million programmes with high profile risk in regulated environments where I have lead or worked as part of high performing cross-functional and matrix managed teams.

I enjoy roles requiring strong stakeholder management, and work hard to ensure benefits are clearly defined, understood and reviewed by all.
