Recommendations
I had the pleasure of working alongside Paul on a major cloud transformation programme at Together. Paul consistently demonstrated technical expertise across a range of technologies. He balanced programme delivery with the challenging demands of BAU support, all while supporting junior team members and the service desk. Paul played a key role in defining architectural strategies for several initiatives and frequently went above and beyond to ensure progress. It was no surprise that Paul was awarded employee of the year whilst I worked with him. I highly recommend Paul for any organization seeking a dedicated and knowledgeable professional.
Throughout my time working with Paul, he was always one of my first options for technical questions and support. His knowledge of many of our systems was excellent, and he whenever I approached with an ask, he always went above and beyond to support. I can’t recommend him highly enough if your organisation needs a dedicated expert in crafting and maintaining system infrastructure / cloud solutions.

Paul is kind, dedicated and hard working; always willing to go the extra mile. When I have worked with him on critical incidents he has been calm and accommodating; even moving scheduled work, where necessary. His knowledge of the Microsoft platforms and tech, especially the Azure offerings, is exemplary. For example, when working on implementing SAML on a Tableau Server with local authentication, Paul’s knowledge of different things to investigate was indispensable. Paul has also represented his colleagues in the People Forum and Social Forum, showing dedication to make Wejo the best place to work that it can be. On a personal note, I really enjoy working with Paul and regard him as a friend.… more.
Paul is very intelligent and clever with a kind nature, always willing to help. He has a thorough knowledge of all the systems and was always there to help when I couldn’t figure out what had gone wrong. I would hope that our paths cross again as he is a great person to work with.
Paul is an excellent it infrastructure professional. He was always calm, thoughtful and helpful. He did a great job of providing the IT infrastructure perspective for several projects including a project to rationalise software applications. He is very easy to get on with and I have no hesitation in recommending him.
