- Select ecommerce technology and implement new systems
- Build teams and improve resource capabilities
- Deliver change through hands-on agile program management
- Lead ecommerce teams fractionally or during an interim period
Most recently I have worked with D2C product retail and subscription businesses such as Lyca Mobile a global telecoms operator, Primrose a pure-play garden retailer and NURVV Run a start-up I helped raise $9M first round funding for. I’m also an advisor and CMO for a range of sports, home and fashion SMEs including two start-up ventures

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Gary for six months, and while there’s no need to reiterate his extensive experience and expertise in the ecommerce world—something well-documented by numerous other recommendations—I do want to highlight what truly sets him apart. He possesses an exceptional clarity of thought and clarity of expression, making his communication remarkably effective and impactful. His ability to articulate his insights and guide actions to influence outcomes is extraordinary.
