I lead Agile delivery for complex, regulated digital and data transformation programmes.
United KingdomWhat I'm looking for
I lead Agile delivery across complex, regulated financial-services programmes, helping teams turn transformation goals into iterative, high-quality outcomes.
At Stratacent for TransUnion UK, I lead delivery for the Tracing and Investigation Portal, establishing scalable Agile practices, release planning, stage-gate governance, and transparent executive reporting.
Across Intellect’s SJP account, I facilitated multi-squad Scrum and ART coordination for DataART and led delivery for a Wealth Management Partner Portal supporting £150bn+ FUM. I helped grow daily usage to 9,500 users, delivered 900k submissions in 2023, and improved team velocity by 100% through coaching and process optimisation.
I bring hands-on technical depth across data, AWS, CI/CD, integrations, and analytics to bridge engineering, product, and governance teams. Earlier work spanning start-ups, product management, data analysis, software development, and teaching helps me lead with clarity, curiosity, and a focus on continuous improvement.
