About

I’m a Project Manager with a strong IT and business-operations background, delivering change across sectors including commercial banking, NHS environments, MSPs, and private enterprises. I enjoy turning complex technical requirements into clear plans, strong governance, and measurable outcomes—whether that’s upgrading infrastructure, rolling out Windows across teams, migrating tenants, or improving BAU handovers.

Across my roles I’ve managed projects from small deployments through to large multi-initiative programmes, combining stakeholder management with practical hands-on knowledge of systems and infrastructure. I’ve led hand-held device and AV rollouts that improved day-to-day productivity and internal communication, and I’m particularly proud of driving faster delivery and better completion rates through improved process and resource alignment.
