Our Experience

Our Experience

  • Working as interim IT Director of an international not-for-profit organisation, we developed the ‘number 2’ within the IT team to take on the Director role. Our approach ensured that we were seen as a mentor not a threat and that our role in their personal development and future success was understood.

  • We identified and nurtured areas that needed support to develop the skills this individual needed to grow into and succeed within the role – aligned with Board objectives and requirements.

  • We integrated and transitioned the Management Team of a national organisation to a new technology platform and partner internally.

  • “Richard takes accountability and responsibility for outcomes and the difference with him is that he is fully invested in whatever outcome is required - not just box ticking. Key to his success is a strong focus on all stakeholders, communications and rolling his sleeves up. He will mentor to ensure the outcome is sustainable beyond the project. This was demonstrated when I worked with him on large scale change where, although interim, his relationship building skills quickly brought respect and confidence to those around him.”

    John Bissell, COO of The Chartered Insurance Institute

  • "Having worked alongside Richard for several years, I found that he is one of the very rare individuals capable of building and sustaining teams and solving difficult problems. He is what I would call “the glue” in the office space, vital in maximizing business performance, both in systems and people."

    Guy Landymore, Senior Underwriter, Cargo & Specie, Newline Group

  • "I have known Richard for over five years working with him both in the UK as well as in China. Richard has a unique skill and ability to build confidence with people given his empathy, demeanour, and cultural sensitivity. Richard was able to adapt to the needs of a culturally unique and diverse market like China and despite the language barrier was able to effectively and efficiently conduct negotiations and achieve results. Richard has an extremely high work ethic and respect towards all colleagues and clients, regardless of their rank or nationality, which allows him to build a trust and loyalty of all of those he works with."
