What do you do?

I’m focused on developing all the operating elements of the business to continually support and enhance “how we do” what we do, with the aim to set new standards in our industry!

Why do you do it?

I’m not an accountant by background, having spent 16 years in banking prior to CP. What attracted me was both the culture of the business and its desire to continually be better, to try new things and experiment, with the aim of constant improvement. For me, that mindset is hugely exciting as it provides an environment to do great things!

What kind of projects have you been involved in?

I’m currently focused on how we accelerate our technology, data and operational capabilities across the business – we’ve already got a great platform to build from and the planned developments will help to further set us apart.

We’ve also set out our vision to become a national firm and, as part of that, I’m leading our integration activities across several strategic acquisitions.

What’s on top of your bucket list?

My bucket list is huge however top (at the moment!) is to visit Japan in the Spring – I’ve always been fascinated by the culture and would love to go and really immerse myself in it for a little while whilst also seeing the famous blossom trees in full bloom!

Secretly, I’ve also always had a dream to learn to fly – perhaps overlooking East Midlands Airport’s runway at our Sky View office will bring that dream a little closer to reality…
