Transforming businesses through strategic technology leadership and data-driven innovation. As a CIO, CDO and Technology Executive with over 15 years of global experience, I partner with CEOs, General Managers and boards to unlock growth, drive operational excellence, and build sustainable competitive advantage in the digital economy. My approach combines technical expertise with a strategic business mindset, enabling organizations to navigate complex transformations while delivering measurable outcomes. 

What I Bring to the Table: Throughout my career, I have led large-scale digital transformation initiatives that have generated over $200+ million in revenue impact and driven significant operational efficiencies across multinational organizations. At Agthia Group PJSC, I spearheaded the development of a comprehensive digital ecosystem that transformed how the company engages with over 150,000 customers annually, resulting in 2M AED in incremental retention value and a 4.5 out of 5.0 user satisfaction score (up from 1.8). At Reckitt, I led a global digital transformation program with a 7M+ GBP budget, creating 56 new positions across 8 digital hubs and driving a 30% improvement in media ROI through data-driven optimization.

My Leadership Philosophy: I believe that technology is not an end in itself, but a powerful enabler of business strategy. My leadership style is collaborative and empowering, focused on building high-performing teams that combine technical excellence with customer-first thinking. I am passionate about creating a culture of innovation where data drives decisions, experimentation is encouraged, and continuous improvement is embedded in the organizational DNA.

Commitment to the Middle East: Having lived and worked in the UAE for years, I have developed a deep appreciation for the unique opportunities and challenges of the Middle Eastern market. The region's ambition to become a global hub for AI, digital innovation, and sustainable growth aligns perfectly with my own vision for the future of technology leadership. I am committed to contributing to this transformation and building long-term value for organizations that are shaping the future of the region.

Programme Director. I help CEOs of UK-based Fintech businesses, deliver annual revenue growth of £15m+, by leading the change and client delivery performance effectively.

Are you a CEO in FinTech or financial services and want to accelerate your revenue growth?

Do you fear the next meeting with investors and shareholders?

Are you frustrated about not being able to get the revenue performance from the assets you have?

Are you worried for your position as CEO even?

Wouldn’t it be better if your revenue growth gained the spring in its step that you keep promising?

If your meetings with investors were handshakes and not ass-kickings?

And if it came without having to throw a whole ton of budget at delivery and sales functions?

It’s because your delivery capability is not optimised, and revenues are slow to be captured. The SDLC and governance are lacking, and sub-optimal delivery decisions are made against this context.

This is good news, because it’s not expensive or radical to fix. It just needs diligent and experienced delivery leadership. Then your revenues will grow faster – happy days.

In my 15+ years’ experience I have led the delivery contribution to revenue growth of c. £15m pa, including my last two roles. That’s why a fintech former colleague said of me:

"…Strategic/critical thinking, excellent communication/articulation and strong analytical ability. He has an ability to focus on business outcomes as well as stated objectives and operates confidently at the Board level."

The same types of issues arise repeatedly – I expect them, am adept at negotiating them and have done so many times.

If you would like me to help you increase revenues by leading and optimising your Change or Delivery function, then direct message me on LinkedIn now.
