Transformation
Simplifying sprawling IT estates, consolidating to a core of key suppliers, and unlocking the data that was already there — inside real public-sector budgets.
IT · digital · culture
I lead the technology change, and the cultural change that makes it stick.
Head of digital, data & technology in local government, fractional CTO to a handful of businesses, and one of Computing's Top 100 UK IT leaders for 2025. I write field notes from Norfolk in between.

What I do
Hearts & minds
The cultural shift is what decides whether a programme lands. I lead the people side as deliberately as the technical one.
CTO as a service
Azure and Microsoft 365 migrations, virtualisation, and fractional technical leadership for a small number of businesses.
