Our Regional Directors

I’m Colin Smith, and I lead Freeman Clarke’s Scottish team. I’m a global digital transformation leader with 30 years of experience in international IT programme delivery, focussing on tangible IT solutions for corporate strategic objectives.

Freeman Clarke’s focus on the fractional model, leveraging the best available experience and talent, presents the corporate communities of Scotland the chance to bolster their capacity to deliver world-class digital transformation programmes. Our extensive C-suite leadership team covers the full IT spectrum and provides the means to match strategic objectives with the talent and experience to deliver on those targets.

I look forward to engaging with Scottish business leaders and focussing on how the Freeman Clarke team will provide the digital vision and drive to deliver.

I’m Steve Moss, I launched and now lead our fast-growing Central London team. My hand-picked team covers a range of industries, each member meeting my exacting criteria of being ‘awesome and humble.’ The team covers the CIO, CTO, CISO, CDO, CPO, DPO and IT Director roles and has delivered for companies ranging from £2M to £500M in revenue.

There are owners and leaders out there whom we can help to grow their businesses right now, but I don’t know about them and they may not know about us. My role is to find those businesses and bridge that gap. Regardless of the sector and your specific needs of a technology leader, I am confident you will find an ideal partner within my team.

I’m David Robertson, I lead the team of Principals in the Western Home Counties. I am a well-seasoned Group Chief Information Technology and Digital Officer with over 30 years of global leadership, strategic and technical expertise. My team of Principals are strong leaders with the ability to switch between a strategic and tactical mindset within highly competitive local and international markets.

I play an advisory role, in addition to partnering with the Board and C-suite executive management teams, working with my team of Principals to help mid-market businesses in setting out and delivering technology investment strategies, tangible technology ROI, digital transformation, and exemplary customer experiences.

I’m Pippa Thomas and I lead the East Midlands, East England, and South Yorkshire team for Freeman Clarke. I am passionate about harnessing technology to deliver business results. We specialize in digital transformation, post-Brexit issues, and using technology to get ahead of the competition. This includes bespoke software, using systems to drive efficiencies, and ensuring compliance.

My team deliver results by being relevant to business leaders. We operate in all sectors, for owned and invested businesses, for the commercial sector, and for charities and not-for-profits. We are only on our client’s side — our independence sets up apart.

I’m Christine Parker Stubbs and as head of the Freeman Clarke team in Yorkshire, North East & North West, I’ve developed a group of likeminded, passionate, exceptional technology leaders. My team of CIOs, CTOs, and IT Directors have unrivalled experience across a wide variety of sectors, from manufacturing, financial services, and property through to e-commerce, digital, ‘software as a service,’ and technology product platforms.

I am inspired by leveraging technology to deliver business objectives, add value, and carve out competitive advantage by improving the products, services, and experiences our clients deliver to their customers and service users.

We recognise that every client is unique, and we carefully match our technology leaders to clients on the basis of sector experience, technological expertise, and cultural fit, which leads to long-term, successful engagements. Our leaders become immersed in your business and an essential part of your leadership team.

I love talking to business leaders and entrepreneurs about their businesses and how technology can help them achieve their goals.
