Enterprise product leader. Platform and AI products tied to business outcomes. 0 to 1 to global scale. $200M+ across 30+ markets.
What I'm looking for
I’m an executive product leader with 16+ years of building and scaling digital products that connect strategy to measurable business outcomes across complex, multi-market environments in 30+ markets. I’ve delivered $200M+ in business value, $150M+ in new commercial market access, and 22X adoption growth through platform consolidation, 0→1 innovation, and market-specific adoption strategies.
As a Senior Product Manager (Associate Director) for a digital solutions portfolio, I owned product strategy, roadmap, and a $3M+ P&L across procurement, logistics, payments, traceability, ESG, and compliance. I built and led a 50+ person cross-functional product organisation across 5 countries, and scaled an operations management platform from pilot to 600+ sites across 11 countries, driving 22X adoption through localisation and simplified onboarding.
I’ve also led high-impact enterprise transformations: an end-to-end digital compliance programme across 25+ countries protecting $200M+ in EU trade, consolidation of 7 legacy systems into a unified cloud-native, API-first platform ecosystem (reducing support costs by 30%), and a mobile-first self-service platform for 300K+ users that unlocked $150M+ in new market access. My work consistently blends platform strategy, legacy modernisation, and AI/ML integration with practical, data-driven GTM execution.
