The best way to categorise the various roles I have undertaken over the past few years would be ‘change catalyst’. I have worked with various organisations to either improve existing processes or to develop projects which clients have previously struggled to get off the ground. Basically I get things done: removing barriers and motivating others to commit and perform for the project in question. I have built the above skills on more than 30 years’ project management, marketing, senior management, and director level experience in various sectors. These include B2B SaaS software, publishing (print and new media), business continuity, and the voluntary sector. I have strong strategic, entrepreneurial, and management abilities; as well as exceptional content writing and editing skills. I have been involved in both the strategic and tactical aspects of B2B marketing for most of my career and I have wide-ranging experience across both digital and non-digital areas. I have also been active in Internet-based publishing since 1997 and have been deeply involved in the design, development, management, and marketing of three successful Internet portals. I am also an industry acknowledged subject matter expert in the field of resilience, crisis management, and business continuity.
