1. STRATEGIC\u00a0 LEADERSHIP<\/strong>
\nWe take control to help you achieve a world class\u00a0 technology platform.<\/p>\n

We excel in turnaround situations with aggressive timelines and challenging\u00a0 opportunities. This is achieved through strong thought leadership, together\u00a0 with structured strategy definition and execution.<\/p>\n

A strong vision of business goals, linked to a cohesive technical strategy,\u00a0 is one of our key strengths in an uncertain and unclear\u00a0 environment.<\/p>\n

Example<\/strong>
\nIan drove an International business expansion\u00a0 across Europe, Asia and the Americas, to improve control and command. This\u00a0 supported a direct revenue growth in excess of $1 billion.<\/p>\n

The key business targets, for the International business platform, were to\u00a0 implement an effective resource capability, drive revenue growth forwards along\u00a0 with improved control and command. This platform covered core banking,\u00a0 multi-currency loans, regulatory reporting and payments.<\/p>\n

End-to-end leadership included examining opportunities for value and growth,\u00a0 aligning technology to meet both short and long-term goals, as well as evolving\u00a0 a strong direction for the new International business platform.<\/p>\n

Ian\u2019s proven ability enables him to leverage technologies, deliver\u00a0 value and maximise business strategies that enable your organisation to achieve\u00a0 its goals.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. VISIONARY\u00a0 EXPERTISE<\/strong>
\nAs a leader of change and a driver of innovation,\u00a0 we enable your organisation to embrace leading edge technology in order to\u00a0 exceed customer expectations and accelerate business growth.<\/p>\n

We achieve this with thorough analytical research of leading edge technology\u00a0 and market trends, supported by strong cross discipline knowledge and business\u00a0 exposure. We build strong teams with trusted relationships and a clear vision to\u00a0 develop service differentiation, supporting flexibility and agility for rapid\u00a0 business change.<\/p>\n

Example<\/strong>
\nIan\u2019s visionary leadership sought products and\u00a0 services that enhanced the organisation\u2019s efficiency, innovation and\u00a0 productivity within a fast changing market place.<\/p>\n

This was evident in the successful implementation of a new Structured\u00a0 Products pitch calculation that successfully reduced the run time for complex\u00a0 pricing calculations by 90%.<\/p>\n

Ian\u2019s visionary leadership encourages preparation for the unknown and\u00a0 repositioning of the business, enabling a strengthened market position to\u00a0 deliver accelerated market growth.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3. BUILDING HIGH PERFORMING\u00a0 TEAMS<\/strong>
\nWith our decisive leadership, solid communication\u00a0 skills and driven approach, our proven commitment inspires individuals to\u00a0 embrace change and achieve business success.<\/p>\n

Our effective decisions and strong man management skills encourage clear\u00a0 roles and responsibilities, giving rise to an effective team who exceed set\u00a0 goals and objectives.<\/p>\n

Example<\/strong>
\nIan founded a first-class technology team to\u00a0 support accelerated business growth into new European markets.<\/p>\n

An initial skills gap analysis brought high calibre talent into the\u00a0 organisation. The team was then developed with effective training, talent\u00a0 management and succession planning. Ian\u2019s inspiration and encouragement\u00a0 developed a consistent and contented team of high achievers.<\/p>\n

Ian\u2019s highly effective, approachable and driven personality encouraged the\u00a0 team to be performance aware and goal centric.\u00a0 The energy of the new\u00a0 team coupled with Ian\u2019s strength of management, resulted in a 100% revenue\u00a0 increase year-on-year.<\/p>\n

Ian inspires, challenges and leads decisively by building a highly\u00a0 effective and efficient team, to drive value and deliver results.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

4. OPERATIONAL\u00a0 EXCELLENCE<\/strong>
\nWith extensive technical knowledge and exposure,\u00a0 we identify key technological capabilities to achieve sustained operational\u00a0 performance.<\/p>\n

This is supported with efficient processes, controls and techniques to\u00a0 improve productivity and reduce overall enterprise costs.<\/p>\n

Example<\/strong>
\nIan established a new European control and\u00a0 command framework to support a financial Risk Management application.\u00a0 This\u00a0 not only realised significant capital savings but also increased the speed of\u00a0 calculation by 50%.<\/p>\n

His specialist skills to develop a robust approach realised waste elimination\u00a0 along with a lean and streamlined system for managing the organisation\u2019s\u00a0 exposure to risk.<\/p>\n

As a successful leader, Ian\u2019s constant commitment to technological\u00a0 advancements ensures that he is not only aware, but also professionally skilled,\u00a0 to introduce the right solution for operational excellence.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Example<\/strong>

The team achieved this by developing leading-edge technology and business\u00a0 processes to support the introduction of new financial products into the\u00a0 marketplace.<\/p>\n
