Bio
Paul Cutler
Tom made an invaluable contribution to the Travelex business during our time working together. He quickly established himself as the right hand to the Managing Director of the UK business - by far the most significant region globally. Tom helped to define, shape, and articulate the business strategy, which subsequently became a blueprint worldwide. He then led and managed the execution of that strategy across the UK business, in close partnership with the UK leadership team. Tom drove the main commercial aspects of implementation, from oversight of tenders, to pricing analysis, and running the management business review process. In addition, Tom led the marketing department in their functional contribution to the UK business. Tom is an experienced strategic planner, dedicated and hardworking, and adds insight and intellect to a powerful leadership package.

Tom’s been on my leadership team over the last 18 months, and helped me bring together four different Travelex companies (previously managed independently) that employ 2,800 colleagues and provide foreign exchange products and services to B2C customers through 550+ retail locations across the UK, and B2B customers including government central banks, financial institutions, supermarkets, travel agencies and other fx providers in 77 countries. Tom heads our marketing department, has helped develop our long-term strategic plans, played a key role in both the formulation and execution of key commercial decisions, and is someone I enjoy working closely with - and would happily recommend him as someone who would make a significant contribution to any senior management team or company board.
