About

With more than 26 years’ experience delivering high-performance operations across the UK and Ireland, I have built a career leading large, geographically dispersed teams, driving commercial performance, and consistently delivering against demanding contractual, financial, and compliance requirements within regulated service environments.
Currently operating at Director level, I have held full accountability for national field operations, workforce strategy, and budgets in excess of £50m, leading teams of up to 500+ employees. My career has been defined by a strong focus on operational excellence, productivity improvement, client retention, and margin protection, supported by a disciplined, data-led approach to performance management and resource optimisation. I am highly experienced in transforming underperforming operations, embedding consistent standards, and building resilient leadership teams capable of sustaining long-term results.
I bring strong commercial acumen and a pragmatic leadership style, working closely with sales, commercial, and executive stakeholders to support growth, retention, and strategic objectives. My background enables me to balance service quality, compliance, and financial performance while operating effectively in high-pressure environments where risk management, safety, and governance are critical. I am recognised for my ability to engage at board level while remaining operationally credible and decisive.
I would welcome the opportunity to contribute my experience, leadership capability, and strategic focus to an organisation seeking to strengthen operational performance and support sustainable growth. I am confident that my background and values would enable me to add immediate and measurable value.
