About Me

8% of visionary CEOs do not have the necessary skills to execute on their vision. The rest need an Operational Leader like me, who ensures that everything gets done.

I have worked in the software as a service (SaaS) sector, with Governance, Risk, and Compliance propositions for nearly a decade. Working from within to help create the necessary structure for scale and driving growth. I am experienced in strategic planning, inspiring pre-sales, robust product and service operations, and evangelical customer success.

Dont take my word for it, here's what they had to say

A breath of fresh air with his calm but logical approach to a problem. There is no such word as 'can't' in Alex's vocabulary and he has a passion for problem solving.

I would not hesitate to ask Alex for help or advice. A real one of a kind gem!
