  • Jun 2003 - Sep 2020

  As a Board director since Dec 2004, I significantly contributed to the expansion of a relatively small IT company based in the Solent region to become the largest South coast independent and successful Managed Services Provider employing over 100 people and turnover circa £10M. By August 2018 we had grown the EBITDA considerably and then sold the business to a telecoms industry buyer. Remaining as a director, I helped integrate the two businesses to position them for further growth. Throughout, I wass responsible for critical analysis of business opportunities, assessing partnerships with vendors and suppliers and challenging general assumptions to help form the strategy of a growing business. Fundamental to the integration, I also remained as the director level point of contact and strategic lead for the majority of key clients.

  Having joined the Royal Navy in 1974 as a junior rating I was soon selected for officer training and subsequently joined Britannia Royal Naval College in 1979. After a number of key posts including that of being the Supply Officer on a warship, two foreign appointments (Italy & Oman) and attending the year long senior officers staff course at Greenwich Naval College I left the Navy as a Lieutenant Commander to pursue life in the commercial world and provide stability for my young family.
