Notes
Profile
With substantial Board / business leadership experience for leading UK & international companies, I possess strong credentials ready for driving next-level growth, business development and commercial performance by bringing the following to companies…
1. A well-established Board Member (since 2016) with an excellent business leadership background and a track record of delivering high impact growth, transformation, and cultural change to drive financial / commercial performance (£MM P&L ownership) by fundamentally changing the way companies do business, shaping future strategies and leading a stronger growth / innovation mindset to achieve real results (P&L impact / strategic contract wins).
2. Adapting business models for leading M&A / strategic investments, multi-division restructuring, building cross-functional capability (aligning people, process, and technology), managing Board / PE investor / shareholder expectations, investing in NPD / product innovation, introducing strategic marketing approaches, launching new global propositions (product roadmap) and building strong C-level client relationships to win major £MM corporate contract deals.
3. Leading business strategy roadmap (3-5 years) to achieve impressive double-digit EBITDA growth alongside sales pipeline development, product innovation strategy (transitioned to a new solutions-based approach) and strengthening B2B client value propositions with digital / process automation, and advanced data analytics. Includes strategic portfolio decisions (what to sell, to whom and how) and identifying gaps / new opportunities.
4. Developed strategic partner relationships to win larger deals and deliver growth roadmap. Targeted key partners on multi-year deals to grow incremental sales by offering integrated solutions with new applications, advanced technologies, add-on features and automation solutions to attract a broader client base, tie-in large customers and strengthen overall global reputation with major clients (US Federal Reserve Bank, Banks Worldwide & Multinational Corporations).
5. Leading business strategy execution through joined-up thinking across all areas (multi-divisions / regional entities), including global sales, commercial (contract tenders, negotiations, and pricing), marketing, product, aftersales, finance, operations, manufacturing, value chain, distribution, technical support, global service infrastructure (value-added multi-year service / maintenance agreements) and multiple product lines in a complex regulated operating environment.
6. A trusted, influential and authentic leader with excellent board / leadership development by completing a Power MBA (associated with Harvard Business School), multiple top talent leadership programmes (in-house and external), executive coaching / mentoring initiatives and business leadership training (skills development courses) all reinforced by extensive board-level exposure and wider industry thought leadership / engagement.
