Oversight of business consulting, looking after our talent and discovering new partnerships

My current role is Head of Business Consulting for London and I am part of the overall London leadership team. My focus is on looking after our talented people, supporting our clients and growing the business with a focus on digital enterprise transformation. I additionally oversee partnerships which are key to evolving our solutions and services and is a really exciting area of development and future growth.

An acquisition that has led to a world of opportunity

I joined Synechron as part of its strategic acquisition in 2015 of a much respected and engaged business consultancy specialising in capital markets. The synergies and opportunities for growth were impressive from a personal perspective and the prospect of being able to combine advisory and technology delivery leveraging Synechron’s strength in technology services was a powerful enticement, making it an easy decision and one that has since presented tremendous opportunity to learn about the latest technologies and techniques.

An expert in capital markets, client lifecycle management and finance

I studied business and finance and ever since have worked in capital markets for buy and sell sided organisations covering the end to end client & trade lifecycle; as well as other functions such as treasury, cash management, payments, and finance. More recently, I have been involved in many digital and design engagements which are bringing about incredible changes to financial services!

Family, Sports & Travel

I like to spend time with my family, and I enjoy sports, almost any sport but cycling and swimming more these days as they are easier on the knees! I also love to travel and try new cuisines whenever possible, but then who doesn’t!
