ABOUT IAN MASON

I help large organisations build and scale digital products that actually change the business, not just the roadmap.Over 14+ years across B2C and energy sectors, I\'ve led product and digital transformation at organisations including bp, Tesco & Sainsbury’s Argos operating across Europe, Asia & North America. I\'ve built and led multidisciplinary teams of up to 50 people, spanning product, engineering, and data - across multiple markets and time zones. My work spans the full arc: from incubating new ventures and defining strategy, to building and scaling AI-powered products and driving commercial outcomes.Right now, I\'m leading AI adoption inside bp\'s Refining business - translating genuinely complex operational challenges into products that improve decision-making and unlock efficiency at scale. It\'s the kind of work that requires equal parts technical credibility, stakeholder management, and commercial sharpness.I\'m most energised by problems at the intersection of emerging technology and real business value - particularly where the organisation hasn\'t quite figured out how to bridge that gap yet.Core expertise: AI product strategy | Product management | Digital transformation | B2C & enterprise product | Innovation & incubation | Omnichannel retail & mobility | International markets
