ABOUT PAUL WINFIELD

I am a self motivated IT professional with 30+ years experience, 15 of which are within the banking and finance sector of major UK High St Banks. I love new technology, embracing the ever-changing developments; to learn and share knowledge with other IT professionals. Also passing this knowledge on via blogs and \"How-to\" guides on my company website in my spare time. I have a very methodical approach being quite a logical person, with the ability to be able to think out of the box; therefore, I am able to resolve almost any problem that I am presented with. I have gained experience of multiple components within many solutions, from design to delivery and migration to support. With understanding from small user requirements right through to multi-billion pound enterprise scale systems, I have designed and delivered. I have experience of multi-site / global corporate environments spanning clients and servers, with structured practices (ITIL, Prince.) along with smaller Best Practice solutions. My main objective is to enjoy my work and handle each task with appropriate priority; from a customer perspective I am able to to prioritise these objectives and deal with them accordingly.
