Chairman, ANS

What was the worst job you have ever had?

Selling Sky TV door-to-door, but it taught me a lot about face-to-face selling.

Which actor would you pick to play you in a movie of your life?

No idea. I'm really bad at remembering actor's names. I'm not really a celebrity watcher.

What do you do as your party trick?

Early nineties dancing to house music; a modern version of dad dancing.

What is your favourite chocolate bar?

Star Bar.

What has been the highlight of your career to date?

The day I started ANS.

Has 2014 been a good, bad or ugly year?

It has been a great year. The business plan of managed services is proving extremely successful.

How would you explain the IT channel to a stranger without boring them to death?

I wouldn't try - I'd talk about business services.

Aside from the channel, my dream career would be... a kite surfer.

What major issues will the channel face in 2015?

Skills shortage and salary pressures.
