I am excited to be a Co-Founder at Supply Assure. I bring 15 years of experience managing multi-million-pound contract portfolios across Critical National Infrastructure. From landmark projects at Crossrail Ltd, Thames Water, TfL and the Houses of Parliament Restoration Programme, I’ve witnessed first-hand how digital transformation is revolutionising supply chain management and contractual obligations.

My expertise lies in untangling complex supplier ecosystems and ensuring commercial accountability throughout. I understand that:

• Business units, not just security teams, must own supply chain security
• Consider nth-party risks, geopolitics and cyber threats beyond direct suppliers
• Match controls to your risk profile while meeting industry standards

In today’s rapidly evolving technological landscape, traditional compliance and best practice methods are struggling to keep pace. This growing complexity introduces new risks to business performance – something I’ve experienced directly through both financial and reputational impacts.

The headlines regularly remind us of the costly consequences when supply chains fall short, and as technology continues to advance, so too will the contractual demands on supply chains.

With experience managing intricate supplier relationships, I understand how modern supply chains should function securely. My approach focuses on unearthing hidden risks and implementing practical solutions that protect your business relationships and bottom line.

At Supply Assure, we are pioneering a proactive approach that helps organisations stay ahead of these challenges. By strategically aligning and leveraging supply chain obligations, we build operational resilience that drives business success.
