A track record built on delivery
Experience across corporate, SME and venture environments — from enterprise transformation and regulated healthcare platforms to SaaS, AI, IoT, digital media, retail technology and Industry 4.0. Organised by theme rather than chronology, with selected mandates as proof.
Organisations & ventures
Healthcare, SaaS & governance
Delivery in environments where access control, auditability and evidence matter as much as the product itself.
Diligram / MyStaff app
Strategic lead and board member for an AI-powered governance platform that evolved from the concept of digital knowledge hubs into a tool giving staff instant, controlled access to policies and regulations. Now supports 100,000+ frontline staff across 70 major hospitals daily — including the NHS (Europe’s largest healthcare provider) and Nuffield Health — lifting compliance rates to nearly 100%.
Regulated operating context
Delivery inside healthcare governance and compliance constraints — balancing clinical and operational needs with traceability, access management and a defensible audit trail, eliminating hundreds of thousands of wasted staff hours each year.
Retail technology & AI-enabled operations
Bringing emerging in-store and operational technology from pilot to credible, scalable concept.
dmTECH / dm-drogerie markt
Senior project leadership for the “future store” programme at Europe’s largest drugstore chain (4,000+ stores) — running pilots for cashierless checkout, visual AI and smart carts, and establishing an HQ test store as a blueprint for next-generation retail operations.
ScanSoles
Product lead and active board member for an AI-based 3D foot-scanning and custom orthotic platform — turning a few smartphone photos into 3D foot data and linking it to distributed “mass customisation” manufacturing across EMEA and Asia.
Media, streaming & digital platforms
Building and delivering content, learning and streaming platforms at scale.
Handelsblatt Media Group / ada Learning
Senior PM and Product Owner for the corporate learning platform of Germany’s leading business media group — MVP live in four months, adopted by staff from top DAX corporations, later expanded into event solutions during the MBO that formed today’s ada Learning GmbH.

Media transformation for one of Europe’s largest broadcasters: migrated infrastructure to the cloud under NIST Level 3 compliance, rolled out a new OTT VOD platform and delivered a Hollywood-certified system streaming VOD across 250+ Deutsche Bahn ICE trains.

ScanSoles — connected manufacturing
Industry 4.0 SaaS platform linking AI-based scanning directly to custom orthotic insole production — digital capture through to physical output.
Venture build, M&A & commercialisation
An entrepreneurial track record of building, scaling and exiting digital ventures.
Sky / Acetrax
Co-founded Europe’s first direct-to-TV streaming service as CEO, grew it to acquisition by Sky in 2012, then managed the commercial integration as Commercial Director — the platform becoming the backbone of Sky’s international streaming business.
Concept to market
Repeated experience moving products from proof of concept and MVP through to rollout and stable operations — with the commercial, vendor and stakeholder management that real launches require.
