How I can help
I’ve worked at the coalface of commercial procurement and contracting for over a decade, across single supply, panel supply, syndicated and common capability purchasing arrangements, and with a particular focus on ICT-related purchasing (both technology and services). I offer a thorough understanding of procurement rules and guidelines, drafting expertise, and a focus on achieving your business outcomes in a manner that allocates risk appropriately.
