A creative digital all-rounder, Jarrod has nearly 20 years’ of experience forming, launching, managing and selling nascent technologies, across mobile, e-commerce, digital media, SaaS and business intelligence.
From building the first intranet for one of the world’s biggest companies to selling unproven distributed e-commerce solutions into globally renowned brands; Jarrod is as happy working with a start-up as he is a multinational corporation, thriving on ‘making it happen’, right at the beginning, and, as it evolves.

He is technically savvy, business astute and a great communicator.
