Kia ora / Hi, I’m Mark, and I work in the public digital service space in Aotearoa/ New Zealand. Though I live now in Wellington / Te Whanganui-a-Tara, I’m originally from a lively Irish university town called Maynooth, and also spent over a decade in beautiful Belfast in Northern Ireland.
Strategy through delivery
I’ve experience, skills garnered via different roles throughout my career, and I now help set the strategic direction for our services - realising aspirations, one iteration at a time!
I set strategic imperatives, leading teams that break these down into work that ultimately delivers. I have a passion for great experience in its various forms, and enjoy putting in place the conditions where teams can serve users and meet their evolving needs.
How we make better
My hobbies include running, music, politics. I am passionate about contributing to building better, for current and future generations. I am also currently learning a little more about Te Ao Māori and the richness of the wonderful place where I currently live through Te Reo, Treaty and Tikanga training.
You’ll find some older posts here where I talk randomly about strategy, product, communications, agile ways of working etc. - all personal views of course!
You can contact me by email, or take a look at my CV for any other details :)
Sin é an scéal (that’s it)
