I'm offering
I worked in the public sector for many years as a civil servant specialising as a project professional for the last 20 years. I have both led and worked on the successful delivery of change projects/programmes in a variety of areas including business change, IT, IT security, legislative change, procurement and efficiency changes. I have been the project/programme manager taking lead roles in a wide variety of large-scale complex changes over a number of years. These change projects/programmes range from small proof of concepts through to significantly complex and high value Government initiatives.
