Experience

Express Data Ltd

• United Kingdom
• Computer Networking Products
• 1 - 100 Employee

• Managing Director

  • Dec 1996 - Present

  Generally responsible for the development and growth of Express Data whilst maintaining a heavy technical bias. To further develop Express and the team we have recently secured investment and completely re structured the business. Adding a new Chairman, Sales Director and Financial Director, as well as introducing a completely new sales team. Its important to note that I am not only passionate about my own business but believe much more could be done to help other similar businesses succeed and grow. With this in mind a lesson learned in recent years has left me with a firm belief that ownership, accountability and responsibility are some of the most important qualities a leader can choose to adopt.
