ABOUT DAVID HARRIS

Seasoned Senior Executive with over 30 years’ global leadership, currently managing the strategic operations of BeamUp.ai, supporting the Company as it rapidly scales up. I have a strong track record of designing and implementing resilient, scalable and agile enterprise-wide strategies, target operating models and organisational designs to mitigate vulnerabilities, enhance efficiency and drive change. I engage effectively with, and forge, trusted board, C-suite and client relationships that influence and shape their vision. I am highly skilled at understanding requirements and building efficient and productive operations and associated infrastructure and tools that enable global teams to achieve optimal performance. Having created ethical values-driven standards and delivered transformational change across UK, EMEA, US and Asia-Pacific operations, I have developed a unique people awareness, and easily bridge cultural nuances to implement structured solutions that assure corporate governance, standards and business continuity. I love what I do, engaging with people on an international basis across complex landscapes to create open and practical working environments that drive innovation and build world-class organisations. Passionate about strengthening team, individual and organisational capabilities, I enable positive behavioural change to achieve a client-focused culture. I have gained a reputation as an effective change agent who collaborates at all levels, influences C-suite decisions and adds value and commercial benefit while remediating business and operational risks to avoid material exposure and loss.
