Head of Business Operations
InvestecHead of Business Operations
Jan. 2003 - Dec. 2005South AfricaPrivate Bank Treasury UK division Project to migrate the London based Private Bank Treasury department to South Africa. I worked on this project in the capacity of Operations Head for South Africa. Extensive travel between South Africa and UK was required during this time. The project was extremely challenging due to the fact that it required a seamless transition of operations from London to Johannesburg with no impact to clients, simultaneously handling the sensitivity of closing down a department in one jurisdiction and setting up from scratch in another. This required extensive coordination with a number of supporting departments including Private Bank IT responsible for all systems, HR responsible for all staffing requirements, OD responsible for all change management issues, to mention just a few. Once the department had been set up in South Africa, I was responsible for bedding down and day to day management to ensure operational efficiencies and excellent client experience. Shortly thereafter, The SA Private Bank treasury department was integrated into this business unit to form one business unit servicing clients across both jurisdictions.
Senior Operations Manager

Apr. 2000 - Dec. 2003South AfricaInvestec Private Bank Account A project was established to develop a new banking product that would combine current account, debit card and credit card functionality into one product called the Investec Private Bank Account. This was unheard of in the banking industry at the time and did not exist. Typically banks offered their clients cheque account and separate credit card accounts. I was involved in most aspects of this project, all the way from the very early product design and concept discussions to development, and finally, implementation. This project required the ability to think at a strategic, operational and practical level. The product was launched with great success and is today one of the cornerstone products in the Investec Private Bank stable of products.
