Ian Kennedy’s Experience
-
Managing Director
British Consulting
(Management Consulting industry)
December 2006 — Present (3 years 2 months)
British Consulting offers a rare set of integration, risk and business change competences through our carefully selected and experienced staff. Our core values focus on delivering our clients’ needs and our methodology is aimed at finishing projects by always considering the end point and ensuring we understanding the pathway to that point.
This ethos has seen British Consulting achieve the several notable successes, including the recovery of significant (£Million / £Billion) non-performing integration programmes that had critical schedule, cost and quality driven requirements.
Like and managing director my time is split between business development and business management, working with our teams and partners to ensure the growth and management of our business.
I also still consult and as a fee generating partner within the business I specialise in integration programme management. -
