EXECUTIVE TRANSFORMATION LEADER | ORGANISATIONAL PSYCHOLOGIST | REGTECH SPECIALIST


I blend 30+ years of C-suite experience. P&L ownership (to £500m turnover), and large scale operations (15k+ FTE), with a Doctorate in Organisational Psychology to ignite transformational change in Financial Services, RegTech, FinTech and BPO. From transforming and scaling global operations, delivering double-digit EBITDA turnarounds, to deploying AI-driven financial crime solutions for 60+ Tier 1 institutions annually, I've tackled the 'perfect storm' of modern business challenges: distributed teams, regulatory pressures, sub-optimal business processes and behavioural barriers to performance.

My executive journey—managing a $500M P&L, leading £600m outsourcing projects and £100m remediations at major banks, and large scale outsourced operations—revealed why personality dynamics drive (or derail) distributed team success. Now, I apply research-backed strategies in behavioural change, compliance, and AI transformation, turning theory into repeatable outcomes. Explore my achievements and profile
