About Donald Broughton:

I am 60 years old and have left a Corporate Sales role with IBM and am looking for a new challenge and to keep busy, either locally in the Marlow or a remote job. I have not found it easy to find employment which has been a surprise. What I can say is I am willing to do pretty much anything, real hands on attitude, incredible work ethic and no ego. Try me.

I have got really sound analytical mind, and have been involved in developing sales strategies looking at markets, offerings, customers and profitability in developing business plans.

· Strong relationship management capabilities, from board level, through to key sponsors and even operational teams.

· Computer literate, and strong exposure and education in digital transformation of organisations, including new technologies such as IOT and Block Chain.

· Worked on and represented contractors on large projects exposing me to Project Management Principles, Risk Management and Contracts Management

· I enjoy working with and analysing data, but it is fair to say I am not an expert.

· I have a strong understanding of financial systems, and could work in a Finance department with a bit of training
