Bio
Basil Choudhry
Sam is an affable and popular manager. He's multi-faceted with a well-rounded understanding of design, marketing & product development; with a good commercial mind. He's an asset to Epos Now, and is well regarded by his team and other teams alike. Over the course of the last year he's shown that's he's been able to add tremendous value to the business. He's lead the complete redesign of our software, improving both the look and userflow for our software; and has also lead the launch of a major new product. He's been a huge asset to Epos Now, and I'm sure his relentless work-rate and commitment would be valued at any business.

Sam is a highly skilled Hof Product. He has delivered significant value to Epos Now in regards to the design and implementation of cutting edge features and large scale UI/UX change. From a product perspective I am yet to meet someone on the same level as Sam who is able to operate at both the low level detail and provide strategic direction to his team to ensure the job gets done. Sam's key strengths are in having an excellent appreciation of the sector he operates in through thorough analysis of competitors, excellent communication skills with his stakeholders and his own team and an excellent eye for detail. Together at Epos Now we built up an excellent working relationship to rebuild the delivery of software features and large scale changes for thousands of customers. None of this would have been possible without Sam's skills. I would highly recommend Sam for any senior product, design or marketing roles due to his abilities.
