Summary

I'm educated in Business (BA Hons) and Coaching (PG Cert), with a desire and plan to educate myself further in the near future, specifically in Emerging Technologies and AI.


Post-graduation (BA Hons), I have ~5 years of experience leading Operations at companies like Virgin Media and Bord Gáis Energy (currently). I also have a keen commercial eye having had excellent commercial exposure throughout my career.


I'm confident that with my current blend of education, skills, and experience I would be a valuable asset to any company. I'm currently open to a change as I strive to enter a new phase in my career. I'd like to join a like-minded team, striving for individual and collective growth in the face of rapid, technology-driven change.
