About
An operations and delivery leader built for the software & technology partner ecosystem.
I'm an operations director and practice manager specialising in professional services and delivery within the software and technology partner channel. I help partners scale their practices, professionalise delivery, and turn implementation work into long-term customer value - leveraging AI to maximise margin
My remit typically spans P&L ownership, delivery operations, programme assurance, and the commercial relationship with software vendors. I run portfolios that mix flagship transformations with high-volume managed services across enterprise technology platforms.
I'm at my best when a partner needs to lift delivery quality without losing margin — building the practice, the playbooks, and the leaders that make it stick.
