Bio
Nicola Langston (Walton)
I have been fortunate to work both with and for John on a number of strategic business change programmes. While always professional, Johns relaxed demeanour instantly provides a sense of ease and confidence that the project is in safe hands. John has excellent stakeholder management skills and is able to develop relationships at all levels. As a leader, he strives to achieve the best for and from his team, and he is always on hand to provide support when needed. John would be an asset to any organisation, and I hope to have the opportunity to work with him again in the future.

I reported to John Moroney in the roles of both PMO and Project Manager for 2 years. John is a very professional, down to earth leader who supported my progression from PMO to Project Manager. John is a determined individual who always strives for success, with great project management and stakeholder management skills he has a wealth of experience and knowledge to see projects through from initiation through to delivery. John led a large Project Team in a FTSE100 company, built fantastic working relationships throughout and is well regarded within the business. He led his team to success delivering key strategic projects, as well as establishing a Strategic Project Office. I have no hesitation at all recommending John for both Project Leadership and Project Management roles, he will be an asset to any company.
