Principal Product Owner

Principal Product Owner with 8 years across insurance, consumer health, and pharma. At Marsh, owning brokering operations products tracking $15bn+ in client premiums, with $2m in attributed revenue and product capabilities I built that enabled teams to identify $8m+ in new placement opportunities.

Previously at Kenvue and Johnson & Johnson - co-defined Amazon 360 with commercial users, contributing to a $5m sales uplift, and built an EMEA intelligent automation function with $800k CIO funding (2,800 hrs/year returned). Strongest where regulated delivery, commercial outcomes, and data-led prioritisation meet.

  1. “To make it simple I will put this upfront: you can’t say ‘No’ to Will. We rapidly reached from zero to the ‘performing’ phase of the team with ease. Will is a very well-organised project manager.”

    F. A. Former direct report at Johnson & Johnson

  2. “Will has been an inspiration for me through my journey in J&J. The way he communicates with the team and supports each of us makes him a truly great manager and leader. He always offers his help and gets the best out of people. His ability to create simple solutions for the most complex problems, with great ideas and knowledge.”

    X. S. Former direct report at Johnson & Johnson

  3. “Will joined GSK as an industrial placement student, making himself indispensable to our IT tech delivery team - from test scripts to validation in a GxP environment. He has a great sense of preempting project requirements. We took the unusual step of keeping him within our team on a part-time basis through his final college year.”

    D. B. Former manager at GSK

  4. “I have been mentoring Will during his industrial placement at GSK. He is eager to learn, wants to succeed, and takes responsibility for growing his skills.
