Dean joins us with extensive experience as a digital, data and technology executive in the utilities sector and as a management consulting partner. He\u2019s also a governing body member of Gartner\u2019s Chief Information Officer (CIO) community, helping to shape future UKI digital and data strategies, and a contributing member of the Forbes CIO Technology Council.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Driving innovation through experience and insight<\/h3>\n
Throughout his career, Dean has led transformation, data and AI initiatives, business performance and insights, and innovation and IT functions. His leadership has delivered best-in-sector regulatory scores for cybersecurity strategy and investment, alongside multiple industry awards.<\/div>\n
\n
\n

As part of our senior leadership team, Dean will be responsible for driving our technology strategy \u2014 ensuring our infrastructure and product development remain world-class, aligning innovation with our business goals and nurturing a culture of high-performance engineering across our teams.<\/p>\n

Commenting on his appointment, Dean said,\u00a0\u201cI am delighted to be joining such a forward-looking organisation that is at the very top of its game.<\/p>\n

\u201cMicrolise\u2019s products in the logistics sector are extremely exciting as the drive towards more efficient operations intensifies. It\u2019s no small task to be trusted with the development of tools that help achieve this, but it\u2019s one I\u2019m ready for.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m particularly inspired by Microlise\u2019s role in shaping the future of the industry \u2013 setting new standards for innovation, sustainability and performance.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

Leadership rooted in innovation and continuity<\/h3>\n

We\u2019re incredibly proud of the foundations built under Duncan\u2019s leadership and excited to continue that journey with Dean at the helm of our technology strategy. As we look to the future, our focus remains on innovation, reliability and growth \u2013 values that underpin everything we do and ensure we continue to deliver for our customers and partners.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

Our CEO,\u00a0Nadeem Raza<\/strong>, added, \u201cI would like to extend my sincere thanks to Duncan McCreadie for his outstanding leadership and contribution over the past decade as our Chief Technology Officer. His commitment and technical vision have been instrumental in shaping Microlise\u2019s success and establishing our reputation for innovation and reliability.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt the same time, we are delighted to welcome Dean to Microlise as our new CTO. His wealth of experience and strategic insight will be invaluable as we build on our strong foundations and continue to drive growth. Dean\u2019s appointment reinforces our ambition to remain the UK\u2019s most trusted and forward-thinking name in transport technology, supporting our customers to operate more efficiently, safely and sustainably.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

Join us<\/h3>\n
Be part of what\u2019s next.<\/strong><\/div>\n
\n
\n

From pioneering digital solutions to driving sustainability across the transport industry, we\u2019re building something exciting \u2013 and we\u2019d love you to be part of it.<\/p>\n
