Travelodge is an independent hotel brand located across the UK as well as in Ireland and Spain.

Currently focused on starting my new role as Head of Enterprise Architecture for Arcadia.Not really someone who fits neatly into one box, I have had the privilege of being involved in some of the most exciting and innovative multichannel programmes across hospitality, retail and logistics.Over this time I've covered everything from creating and managing digital competency centres for billion pound websites (Argos), to driving multi-million pound development programs, digital innovation programmes, and more recently, developing Enterprise-level architecture and technical roadmaps within Hospitality. Through these roles I've gained considerable experience of working at board level with both IT and business strategies for large retail and hospitality companies. A key element to all of this has been the development high performing teams, development methodologies and operating processes and maintaining strong supplier partnerships - often at the cutting edge of industry With a breadth of experience from logistics, wholesale finance, retail and hospitality, I've worked at the forefront of developing technology and new business ventures - from modular design, ecommerce, mobile technologies, shopping channels, kiosk, omni-channel architectures and digital architecture. My more recent roles though have challenged me to look beyond the digital world to the whole enterprise, such as finance, HR, desktop, infrastructure and reporting.
