- Deliver at scale: govern large team programmes with strong risk, quality, and benefits tracking; course‑correct decisively.
- Grow accounts: spot/convert opportunities; build multi‑year relationships; expand teams and scope.
- Build great teams: bring people together, set high standards, support welfare, and mentor senior consultants/managers.
- Provide thought leadership on data and analytics strategy and architecture within the modern data stack at a strategic level.
- Show up in person: run monthly team days in Bristol and typically a monthly client on‑site.

- Team builder: proven record creating cohesive, high‑performing teams and developing future leaders.
- Strong data and analytics domain expertise leading the design and build of large, enterprise analytics platforms.
- Modern data stack familiarity: experience guiding programmes that use contemporary cloud data platforms (e.g., Snowflake, Databricks, Matillion, Fivetran, DBT) and scalable architectures.
