Introduction
I lead digital transformation where technology, data and operating models drive measurable business outcomes. With 20+ years of experience across enterprise, regulated and PE-backed environments, I specialise in modernising digital platforms, embedding AI and analytics, and turning strategy into execution at scale. I’ve led multi-million-dollar global programmes, modernised CRM and data ecosystems (often using Salesforce as a strategic platform), and partnered closely with executive teams to improve customer experience, operational efficiency and growth. My focus is not tools, but impact—how digital capability creates resilience, speed and long-term value. I’m seeking senior Digital Leadership roles (Chief Digital, Transformation Director, Digital & Technology Lead) where change must deliver real outcomes, not slideware.
