Bio
Robert Whelan
I've worked with Noel closely on a large number of projects in Paddy Power. He's an excellent communicator, leader and visionary. He has an uncanny ability to understand the business challenges and deliver reliable solutions on time to meet those needs. His team has great respect for him, not just his soft skills, but also thorough technical understanding of his field. The business stakeholders hold him great regard, seen as a the go to man, when things need to be delivered - either as a last minute request, or as long term program of activities. I'm delighted to work with Noel, and hold him in very high regard. An asset to any web development enterprise!

I have worked with Noel on numerous web projects over the years on a consultative basis within the eComm industry in Ireland and the UK. Noel's expertise has yielded emormous results for many companies looking for an outside the box approach to website set-up, design and most importantly traffic and revenue optimisation. I would not hesitate in recommending Noel as an expert in his field and someone who has a proven and ever expanding track record.
