Greater Manchester, England, United Kingdom
Are you struggling with your product & tech delivery? Have concerns that things aren't quite right? Perhaps you're preparing for an investment round or gearing up for growth and thinking about how you can scale your platform and team? Whether you're an early stage start-up or a major organisation, the same rules apply - ruthless focus and an effective engine of delivery. By applying product thinking and modern engineering best practices I help founders, start-ups/scale-ups, established orgs and investors cut through the complexity and communicate in a language you'll understand. I don't just advise from the sidelines - I also work with founders and leadership teams on a fractional or part-time basis as an independent CPTO/CTO, getting hands-on with the problems alongside you, and coach and mentor individuals and teams. A bit about me 👀 A product and technology leader with 25 years experience and over 15 years in senior leadership across a wide variety of industries. Trusted by major brands (Co-op, Moneysupermarket) as well as succesful start-ups & scale-ups. Passionate, hands-on, commercially minded, known for building products that scale and productive, motivated teams. A long standing advocate for modern best practices for delivering software (Agile/XP/Lean). I believe "doing good things leads to good things", so I'm always happy to speak to similar minded people, give back and lend my experience to make a difference where I can. Available for speaking, podcasts, mentoring, consultancy or just a coffee and a chat.
