An experienced IT professional with broad experience in Project Delivery in Financial Services and Telecommunications industries. I have an excellent track record of delivering complex and major change through a focus on strong stakeholder management and attention to detail. I have 20 plus years of project delivery experience delivering for both customer and integrator. My passion is delivering projects from inception to transition and problem solving. As a project manager I am very comfortable being a trailblazer implementing new technologies including: Puppet, Hadoop, Splunk. I happily collaborate with both my immediate and wider teams to share ideas and patterns. I am a results driven and proven consistent performer bringing projects in on time and under budget. I am comfortable with ambiguity, and very flexible and adaptable depending on audience (team or stakeholder, internal or external). I have a strong record in building and managing customer / stakeholder relationships, vendor engagement and management, risk management, and understanding of regulatory obligations and constraints. My time and financial management skills are outstanding. I am a strong people leader, and enjoy motivating and driving organizational change with both co-located and virtual teams.
