Most recently, he worked at data-driven marketing and loyalty analytics company Aimia as VP of the firm's Analytics Division for Canada, having previously been the company's Head of Analytics for EMEA, responsible for loyalty programmes including the Nectar coalition loyalty scheme in the UK. Before this, he was dunnhumby's Head of Shopping Experience, helping to develop customer analytics solutions for retail and CPG companies.
