Rowan was an extremely dedicated and conscientious colleague whom I worked very well with. I found him to be technically proficient and a quietly effective operative.

I joined UXC in 2005 as Head of Risk and Compliance, to create an internal audit function and enterprise-wide risk management framework. I was appointed Chief Financial and Risk Officer in 2006, and also assumed all CFO responsibilities. My biggest learnings at UXC were remaining agile to the needs of the Board and Executive, with 20 acquisitions during my tenure overlayed by the impact of GFC. This extended to in-depth monthly reporting and re-forecasting of up to 27 business units in three divisions. Show less
