Adrian Cotterill’s Summary

Over the past 18 years, I have worked for a wide variety of technology related businesses, in positions such as Chief Technology Officer, Head of Internet Technology, Business Development Director, Head of Strategy, Interactive Marketing Manager and most recently as Chief Digital Officer.

Over the years my experience has gravitated towards high level strategic management, providing expertise on product development, entry to market strategy, business development (including sales), business planning and the development of sustainable business models.

This has typically been done within the context of organisations at the forefront of technological advancement including Internet Service Providers, Internet Start-ups, Wi-Fi Operators, Broadcasters, Digital Signage / Screen Network Operators, Retail Music providers and most recently a number of Web 2.0 startups.

I am always on the lookout for new opportunities where my expertise in managing both people and technology and my ability to sell and generate new business can be combined to good effect.

Such opportunities will probably involve being able to make a significant impact on growing a new or existing business in the UK or overseas.
