What are your favourite things about Freebook Global Technologies?

We genuinely value and care for all of our employees and clients; this is demonstrated by our strong client and employee retention record. Every employee is treated as a unique individual having every opportunity to progress their career and develop themselves, limited only by their own ambition and capabilities.

What does your Freebook Global Technologies role involve?

I am responsible for our internal and external infrastructure while overseeing the technical team. I also hold the role of Head of Compliance, which consists of the running of our quality and information security management systems and maintaining our ISO accreditations. I also manage our consultancy services on compliance and regulatory matters.

What would your dream project be?

The best projects for me are where we are able to create unique solutions for clients involving the latest technologies that enable their business to work as seamlessly as possible, where IT is a background feature of the business that works and does not interfere with staff doing their jobs.

What do you enjoy doing outside of work?

I have many hobbies outside of work, revolving mostly around outdoor activities and cars. For example, I am an experienced car detailer, mostly working on vehicles for friends and family. I am also a regular airsoft player, and enjoy sim-racing, karting, and have been an advanced driving tutor for the IAM.
