Chris is a truly authentic leader with a passion for people development, technology and ensuring that the right things are done right. The ultimate professional, combining technical expertise with business acumen to solve business problems. He has an amazing ability to keep the bigger picture in mind and drive strategy but at the same time can hone in on the detail when needed. He is an insightful coach, mentor and manager, ensuring that individuals are given the relevant feedback needed to grow and move forward. I have worked with Chris in different capacities over the last 15 years and would be more than happy to work with him again in the future.

His calm but authoritative approach benefits him greatly especially when dealing with challenging business stakeholders and environments.
