Alan Mather’s Summary
I have a strong track record in managing businesses and programmes through extensive change. I drive delivery through clear vision, absolute accountability, creativity and determined decision-making.
I can take on roles requiring a clear strategic and visionary skillset as well as bringing tactical capability to solving immediate problems. I have a reputation for engaging a wide range of stakeholders to bring new ideas to old problems – and seeing the solution through to completion with solid execution
Internationally recognised in the e-government world as the guy that drove delivery of the UK's Government Gateway and also the platform and capability behind direct.gov.uk. As a result, I was the recipient in 2004 of the “e-Government pioneer” award from Mark Foreman, former CIO, US government.
I'm comfortable dealing one to one with high ranking executives in government and industry or presenting on a variety of topics to audiences numbering from the tens to the thousands.
I have lived and worked in Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Spain, Switzerland and the USA amongst others. I speak fluent French, can get by in German and occasionally manage a few words of Italian.
