What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead automotive design, BIW, cabin or vehicle integration programmes where I can improve cost, quality and delivery, coordinate global teams and suppliers, and take projects from concept through validation and production.

I lead automotive design and vehicle integration programmes across BIW, cabin engineering, interior and exterior trim. My work spans concept development, validation, vehicle builds, testing, CAD maturity and production release.

At Jaguar Land Rover, I manage closure and exterior vehicle integration, coordinating technical data progression, virtual and physical V&V, and alignment across commodity groups. Previously at Bentley Motors, I led premium interior door trim delivery through concept, validation and production release while meeting timing and cost targets.

I've delivered cab and BIW programmes at Dennis Eagle, CLAAS, Ashok Leyland, Mahindra & Mahindra and ICML/Sonalika. I use CATIA, NX, Solid Edge, Teamcenter and Enovia to develop cost-effective designs, support suppliers and manufacturing teams, and improve quality, delivery and engineering efficiency.
