Responsibility and experience

David leads strategic consulting and procurement engagements, helping organisations navigate complex challenges and align outcomes with long-term goals. His work spans high-impact projects where clarity of purpose, structured decision making, and operational confidence are essential.

Drawing on extensive experience working with regulated organisations, David focuses on shaping practical frameworks that turn strategy into dependable action. He balances analytical rigour with real world constraints so that teams can implement solutions that endure beyond initial delivery.

Prior to joining askelie®, David held senior advisory and leadership roles supporting large scale transformation and procurement programmes, including work with SaaS businesses through periods of growth, acquisition, and successful exit. His experience of navigating these transitions informs a pragmatic, outcomes-focused approach to strategy, where decisions are grounded in long-term value rather than short-term momentum.

Believes the best outcomes come from clear expectations, structured decisions and systems that work reliably day in and day out.
