Making strategic technology decisions that impact your business is never easy. The IT Pro leader board is here to offer advice and guidance as well as sharing the benefit of their collective experience.

James forms a core part of the IT team at Warwickshire County Council, with a key focus on improving service delivery.

He is currently responsible for leading the Central Government G-Cloud Foundation Partner project for Warwickshire County Council to select, design and implement a cloud based e-mail solution.

James and his team were recently awarded the Cloud Initiative of the Year accolade at IT Pro's inaugural awards in 2011.
