Work history

About me

With three decades of business experience across sales and marketing, including 17 years at senior levels I've led teams, coached managers, organised sales and marketing campaigns, managed product management and sales planning teams, written business plans, presented to boards (internally and to clients and prospective clients) and generally dealt with the issues of leadership in large corporate entities. I've also run my own small scale consultancy and a couple of "work-life" businesses as well.

I bring global experience having worked across Europe and the Middle East, I bring pragmatism and an enthusiasm for success.

What am I looking for

I'm really looking to contribute some of the knowledge and experience I have built up. I spend most of my time now running small personal businesses that give me lots of time flexibility but are rarely intellectually challenging in the way that large corporate business was.
