Throughout my career I have delivered more than $340 million in business benefits, leading enterprise integration, platform uplift, and operating model change programmes of national significance. Highlights include directing the integration of $52 billion in funds under management into Apex Group’s custody and investment accounting platform and supporting Fisher Funds’ $310 million acquisition of Kiwi Wealth, ensuring continuity across people, process, and platform transition. I thrive in high-trust environments where purpose, collaboration, and delivery discipline are critical. My approach is pragmatic, transparent, and people-centred, balancing commercial outcomes with organisational alignment. I simplify complexity, align cross-functional teams, and help leaders land change with confidence and stability.
