What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead programme and project delivery where I can use analytical, governance-focused expertise to improve cost, time, and quality—driving continuous improvement, partnering with stakeholders and vendors, and turning strategy into practical outcomes.

I’m a people-oriented, result-driven Chartered Engineer who delivers measurable outcomes across Defence Acquisition, Defence Policy, and Operations—bringing board-level aspirations to on-the-ground deliverables. I’m analytical, diplomatic, and comfortable working with colleagues and interlocutors at all levels, including in austere and challenging environments.

I bring deep expertise in programme and project management, risk and opportunity management, governance & compliance, logistics and supply chain, policy and strategy development, and systems integration. I’m passionate about delivering operational efficiencies through innovation and continuous improvement, leveraging data mining and quantitative research to support strategic planning, threat assessment, and governance-focused delivery.

After long period in the Defence & Aerospace sector, I am pivoting towards Technology sector, where I learn new skills, build and deliver low cost solutions to solve some of my client’s strategic and operational challenges. I am delivering this through my multi-disciplinary consultancy company - BACS. See link below. I am looking for full or part full remote tech roles which allow me to transition into technology including AI in particular. See my linked in profile for greater visibility of my skills.
