Client Testimonials

Kevin Leighton

It was my good fortune to have worked closely with James in an executive client/provider relationship for over two years while managing a service provider's contracted service outcomes to one of Australia's more iconic brands during James' own lengthy tenure as the organization's CIO.

In all business practices in my experience, James places both internal and external service providers under persistent tension to deliver quality outcomes and he strives to set new benchmarks and expectations for every day operations. A quality many organisations seek from those 'on point' in such a role. 

Jim Rice

James has a fantastic leadership style. At Aussie, it was obvious to me (as an objective third party) that everyone on James' team felt empowered, included and effective in their role.

Taking your technology to the next level

We have extensive experience in working with sales, marketing, operations, finance and HR to transform your business into a digitally proficient business able to take advantage of the latest technologies to better services your customers. 

Development and implementation of policies and procedures for IT operations covering security, software licencing compliance, infrastructure management, change management, DRP and service level agreement compliance. Without effective management of this area you could be exposed to unexpected software licence costs, legal audit by vendors, loss of corporate and customer data, and most importantly severe damage to your reputation.

From business case development through to deployment and post-implementation review. We have managed large and small projects across multiple business units and countries.

Controlling your IT supply chain through effective vendor management is critical to being a high value adding and cost effective IT department. We have the commercial skills needed to negotiate, implement and manage outsource vendors and other IT supply contracts such as telecommunications, network management, PC and server suppliers, software licencing and other IT operations tools.

 

With our deep understanding of the vendor mindset, we have successfully managed IT vendor relationships in Australia, Europe and the USA.

We are experienced senior IT executives that have worked across many industries including financial services, FMCG, logistics, consulting and business services. We are experienced working with C-level executives through to front office teams to create IT strategies to deliver on your business vision.

If your organisations is going through significant business re-organisation with acquisitions and divestments, we have the experience to manage the IT activities needed to support a significant business change with the minimum interruption to the business.

Motivating, leading and managing mixed teams of IT, business and vendor personnel to deliver business outcomes. This includes the option of Interim Executives to cover short term absences in your IT team.
