Talking with... Colin Clive, Director of Platforms & Engineering at WebHelp
Manage episode 411709127 series 3567888
When we launched the Talking with Tech Leaders podcast, Colin Clive is exactly the kind of guest we had in mind. From an early age, he’s been elbow-deep in computing – programming with display models in high-street shops with his friends and creating a system to tackle the massive admin burden of his paper round. Since then, he’s charted a career path from technology development to senior leadership, with the likes of IBM, the Student Loans Company and, today, Webhelp.
In this episode, we go through it all, chatting through his journey in tech, including the exciting (crocodiles!) year out he took travelling down under. He shares some of the experiences and wisdom he’s gathered along the way, and takes us through those challenging, dramatic days when the Covid-19 pandemic hit – when he and his colleagues at Webhelp shifted one of the market’s leading process outsourcing and consultancy businesses onto a home-based operation.
It’s well worth a listen. Please subscribe, tell your friends and, if you have a spare moment, drop us a review.
