I am a managing solutions architect with over 25 years’ experience working with a broad range of organisations including industry leading, global companies. I am also experienced in designing and implementing messaging solutions using both on-premise and cloud-based infrastructures.
I possess a sound understanding of commercial processes and can translate real world business requirements into robust IT solutions. I have been responsible for the implementation of large projects from inception, through design, planning and into deployment. I have also worked with service desks to ensure a smooth transition of projects into ‘Business as Usual’ support. Within some of these larger projects, I have managed multiple vendors in the supply of resources and products for the client.
Having excellent interpersonal skills, I can communicate at all levels across a business, likewise confidently with customers. This has proven invaluable when assisting companies in identifying their requirements prior to the presentation of a solution.
As a subject matter expert implementing both server-based computing and virtual desktop models, I have provided consultancy and design support to numerous global customers. I work closely with vendors such as Citrix and Microsoft to ensure that solutions fit with long-term product roadmaps and provide end users with a beneficial return on investment.
My ability to problem-solve has proven extremely useful when detecting issues with legacy environments. I have recovered ‘poor’ installations to re-establish value for money for customers who have suffered from an environment with a weak governance or design issues.More...
