Candidate Description

With close to two decades steering complex technology programmes, this senior project and program leader excels at guiding multi-disciplinary teams through large-scale digital transformations across automotive, telecommunications, education and financial services sectors. Adept at navigating politically charged environments, they couple sharp business acumen with deep knowledge of governance frameworks to consistently deliver CRM, ERP, cloud and data-driven initiatives that align to corporate strategy. Their experience spans budgets up to $16 M and global stakeholder groups, underpinned by strong negotiation and communication skills.

Adept at hybrid delivery models, they apply Agile, PRINCE2 and PMBOK methodologies to drive outcomes. Key contributions include uplifting an infrastructure company's on-premise CRM to a distributed SaaS architecture incorporating AWS-hosted applications and iPaaS integrations, recovering a motoring service's legacy-system replacement programme through robust risk and financial controls, and orchestrating a university's award-winning Block Model roll-out. Proficient in establishing Program Management Offices, they champion schedule integrity, dependency tracking, data warehousing and change management while mentoring stream leads and vendors.

This professional's leadership approach blends strategic foresight with hands-on execution, enabling rapid issue resolution and resilient delivery cultures. Recognised by a business awards body and an IT directors council for technology innovation, they excel at building consensus among C-suite executives, business stakeholders and technical teams. Their track record of turning around at-risk programmes and sustaining value realisation positions them as a versatile asset capable of driving future cloud, SaaS and digital transformation initiatives to successful completion.
