I had the honour and privilege to work with Ben in my previous engagement – what a pleasure. Ben, thank-you for the amazing interaction we had, your diligence, attention to detail, commitment to the outcome and the client is commendable, something seldom found in today’s fast-paced environment. I wish you luck, and wish we could work together again – keep it up.

      I was the primary responsible person for the technical quality of solutions delivered during many projects, mainly pertaining to compliance within the Capital and Core Banking space. The most notable of these is the Nedbank JSE MIT Matching Engine Replacement project ("Project Jaya"). The scope of this project spanned over the entire equities and derivatives trading environment of Nedbank Capital, Nedbank Wealth and BoE. A total overhaul of the applications and infrastructure aspects of the environment was successfully completed.
