Sectors

Fluent in the industries that run on infrastructure.

Regulated, asset-intensive, safety-critical — these sectors don't transform like consumer businesses. With over two decades inside them means I start with the context already understood.

Water & wastewater

The UK water industry, end to end.

From clean and waste networks to treatment and customer operations — through the lens of the AMP investment cycle and the regulatory expectations that shape it.

I've shaped digital transformation, OT cyber security and digital-twin strategy across the sector, and continue to engage with it through industry advisory work. I understand how Ofwat price reviews translate into investment, where operational technology and IT collide, and why resilience and efficiency now sit at the top of the agenda.

Energy & utilities

Power and gas, under price-control pressure.

Networks and suppliers navigating decarbonisation, ageing assets and tight regulatory price controls — where technology investment must be justified to the penny.

I've built pipeline and led strategic pursuits across power and gas, developing the senior relationships that turn a single engagement into a decade-long partnership. I bring working knowledge of Ofgem price-control cycles, grid and network modernisation, emerging low carbon issues such as LCHS and CCUS, and the data, digital twin, and AI agenda reshaping how utilities run their assets.

Manufacturing

Industrial transformation at enterprise scale.

Manufacturing businesses re-shaping operations, supply chains and ownership structures — often across borders.

My manufacturing work spans target operating-model design, operational excellence and some of the most complex change of all: merger integration and business separation. I've led the IT separation behind a global divestment and judged national awards on manufacturing operational excellence — so I bring both the delivery scars and the outside perspective.

The common thread

Regulated. Asset-heavy. Safety-critical.

Across all three sectors the pattern repeats: long investment cycles, operational technology that can't simply be patched on a Tuesday, real-world consequences when things go wrong, and boards that rightly demand the business case before the technology. That shared DNA is exactly where I work best.
