He has a broad range of managerial, project management, program management, and service delivery experience gained in media production, financial services, IT services, manufacturing, public utilities, defense and higher education.

His primary roles have been in senior management, reporting at board level, with responsibility for strategic guidance, sales support, product and service delivery. Gary’s specialist areas are defining business solutions, program, project and supplier management.
