I have worked in the Technology in the Financial Services industry for over 20 years. I started my career straight from college as a junior developer in RBS. This was a great learning part of my career and due to the size of the company I got to move around many different teams throughout the UK and Ireland and constantly expand my learning. After 6 great years I moved on to a Life Assurance company for 3 years working for clients scattered through Europe.

I then joined AIB and have been here since. I started as a tech team lead of a relatively small team in the mortgages space and have moved to BPM, Mobile banking app, Group websites, Doc capabilities to name a few. We’ve recently embarked on an agile transformation and I’m now tribe tech lead for a tribe of approx. 200 people. While everyday offers new challenges this is the exciting part of the job too. Across the tribe and channels we’d deliver an element of change to our customers every week. Being in digital customers are at the forefront of what we do. Due to this we get direct and instant feedback on all changes too so this keeps us on our toes! I really enjoy working in technology and recognising colleagues in all fields is something I’m very passionate about and the change in can make in someones career is very wholesome.
