  A seasoned professional with over thirty years industry experience. A strategic thinker and change manager with a proven track record across a number of businesses. I have recently stepped down as Managing Director of Pernod Ricard in the U.K. Prior to this, I spent over 14 years in Irish Distillers primarily as Human Resources Director and latterly as MD of Irish operations . The vast majority of my business life has been in the alcoholic beverages sector with both Pernod Ricard and Diageo.I am currently looking for opportunities to use this experience in mentoring start ups, working on change management or developing new business. I will let you know how I'm getting on!!
