Profile
Areas of responsibility within Forfusion
As Head of Project Office, I develop and implement best practices and standards within the Project Management Office (PMO) while overseeing project and programme delivery across a highly diverse client base. My remit also includes continuous review of project health and profitability while leading and developing a team of world-class IT consultants, engineers, and project managers.
Industry experience
Since transitioning from the Army’s Royal Signals in 2013, I began my career as a Project Manager in the Oil & Gas industry, managing projects across Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. Later, I became a Portfolio Lead for Strategic Network Delivery and Support roles within the UK, serving both government and multinational clients. I joined Forfusion in 2021 as a Senior Project Manager, working directly with client businesses as a Consultant Project Manager, providing detailed knowledge of how best to leverage success with Forfusion.
Background
My Project Management expertise was cultivated over a 24-year career in the Royal Signals, where I gained extensive experience in challenging environments worldwide, including Bosnia, Sierra Leone, Northern Ireland, Iraq, Afghanistan, and the Arctic Circle! Beginning my military communications career as a Radio Telegraphist specialising in Morse Code, I progressed to the role of Yeoman of Signals, offering strategic planning and deployment advice on military communications.
