"Steve ran a couple of company-wide strategy workshops for the Leisure Database Company and we were impressed at how quickly he got up to speed with our business, customers and the wider industry. His structured approach enabled us to both challenge existing ways of working and consider future opportunities, particularly around the collecting of new data and adopting new technology platforms. He also provided insightful guidance and strategy while we were negotiating a contract for a partnership with an overseas organisation. I would be very happy to work with Steve again in the future".
"Steve is an experienced commercial executive with technical understanding and sharp analytical skills. His joining Reckon Digital's management team was greatly beneficial in supporting the company's growth. He helped us organise our processes and to be ambitious in our objectives. Steve gets things done: his strategic support helped us to increase the volume of work we do with various agencies of the United Nations, and his negotiation and contract management skills were invaluable during a very critical period of growth. Moreover, Steve is resourceful, intelligent and always a pleasure to work with. We definitely hope we will have the pleasure to work with him again in the future".
"Steve added tremendous value to our work on opening up the BBC’s Archive and it was great to have him as part of the team. Without doubt, it was his tenacity in pursuing new projects, often in the face of complex corporate obstacles, that led us to get a number of initiatives off the ground and these have been instrumental in supporting the BBC Archive Development strategy. He is resilient but relaxed, adept at clearly and succinctly articulating a strategy and action plan, and skillful in getting partners and stakeholders on board and contracted. I hope I will have the opportunity to work with Steve again in the future".
"Our data is stored in multiple tables across our CRM and usage databases and Steve did a great job of quickly getting to grips with understanding it in relation to our business. He wrote code in both SQL and R to format and pull the relevant data into new datasets for analysis and modelling in ways that we had not previously considered and which, ultimately, gave us new insights into our customers and their behaviour".
"Steve was part of a data science team that worked on a project at MoveGB. I was impressed with how quickly they got up to speed with both the company’s business and its data and how they were able to deliver the first iteration of a recommendation system that used machine learning after only 2 weeks. They then developed a second version which addressed many of the limitations of the first, again in a short space of time. They worked well together, were enthusiastic and professional throughout and I would be very happy to work with Steve again".
