      Activities and Societies: Lots of sport & interesting experiences ! A time of exploration, no idea what I wanted to do with my life but found I was ok at sport so represented the school at Rugby, Cricket & Athletics, however then along came the biggest distraction of all, and being in a mixed sex school certainly assisted me to pass the basic Foundation course! however being of the male persuasion I am still learning on how to behave 'properly' in the presence of the fairer sex.(Does a man ever learn that lesson fully I wonder:)) Unfortunately all this… Show more A time of exploration, no idea what I wanted to do with my life but found I was ok at sport so represented the school at Rugby, Cricket & Athletics, however then along came the biggest distraction of all, and being in a mixed sex school certainly assisted me to pass the basic Foundation course! however being of the male persuasion I am still learning on how to behave 'properly' in the presence of the fairer sex.(Does a man ever learn that lesson fully I wonder:)) Unfortunately all this 'learning' had a negative impact any academic objectives & I have had to catch up intellectually as I have gone through life, but as they say 'save the best for last' !!

    • Heart of Worcestershire College

      Sept 2004 - now
      Director of ICT & Facilities

      Managing & leading a large diverse department responsible for the strategic provision of everything ICT/Facilities related to around 700 staff & up to 20,000 students across the Heart of Worcestershire campus.I now spend the majority of my days proactively planning the work- load for 50+ professionals spread geographically right across the County of Worcestershire. In both area's I am lucky to be-able to rely on individuals with many years of experience, relevant knowledge & a positive attitude (Certainly aids in the ability to delegate tasks!) This cosmopolitan set of skills allows us to be very self sufficient & cost effective when it comes to acceptable levels of service provision. Coming up 'through the ranks' so to speak also allows me to empathise and react positively to the pressures that both departments are constantly under to present a seamless, very diverse support/development culture in an ever changing environment.Positive mature attitude combined with relevant experience = Good chance of succeeding !
