"As a company, VLC has always intrigued me. A strong brand name, interesting and approachable people, a willingness to challenge and innovate. When I agreed with the VLC management board to set up and grow a UK-based business, I knew that our people and our products have a place in the European market. What I intend to offer is a different approach to modelling and data analytics than has traditionally been available: more integrated, driven by a deep expertise of colleagues and building on the fascinating projects and products we are delivering in Australia."
